Bring Back The I Formation

you people will never be happy

I do think they should tweak a little and give Guice a lead blocker on some inside runs. I remember Meyer tweaking his spread after we beat them in 2005 and started using his h-back as a blocker to help open up their run game.

It's not useless. It allows the coaches to see how the defense is playing us. We just aren't good enough up front to capitalize on any of it.

when you swap tackles and all that shite, and not a single person on the defense moves, what was the point?

I'd like to see the I formation. I'd also like to see an empty backfield. I'd also like to see the pistol. i'd like to see us run out of the shotgun. How about a screen pass to a rb or a wr. All i want to see is some variety. We look like we run a play out of the same 3 formations all game.

I'll chalk it up to a new offense and all and give them a pass this year, but if they aren't more complex come next year with Brennan, after all the young guys have had time to learn this, then we need a new OC.

Totally agree with you on Grimes.

What's the point of moving the right tackle alongside the left tackle and running to the short side? Saw them do that several times and get stuffed. At least run to the strong side a few times.

I know, it's all deception. It's sure confusing to me, obviously not to Mississippi State.

You have one of the best RB's in Guice, let him run. Wait until we have goal to go situations, we will have problems with all the shifting and motion.

Hell no. That is antiquated

All this motion crap is useless. Tackles swapping sides and all that other bullshite. Our best player on offense (Guice) isn't getting enough touches. Put JD at fullback and give the ball to Guice and Williams. Run your play action off of that. I had enough of Canada's motion offense already.

Actually has merit. Motion with single back set isn't working that great or consistently. Might has well take the H-Back, Full Back or whatever the kids now days are calling it and run the LF type inside-outside run plays to change the pace.

Our WR appear weak as MSST was pressing man-coverage, not resecting the WRs ability to break the jam and the QB ability to deliver the slant or flat.

Can't utilize the TE it appears as you need them to help the O-line.

Just a hot mess.

i'm willing to give them a chance to fully implement Canada's offense. that said, I would have been very happy with a variation of the West Coast offense. pretty standard stuff but you use the fullback and Tight End on offense. and we would have used the I instead of the pro set, of course.
