I get that, what things do you thing would draw a LB up? The threat of a QB taking off is one of them.
Or he's watching the running back. Watch our first TD against Florida last year. Burrow held the ball in CEH's chest long enough to draw in the LB or safety, then pulled it up and fired to Chase for the quick slant.
Same on the first TD to Jefferson against OU.

I get that, I know how it works. And you don’t need a mobile QB to run it, shite Foles was the first to really run it well in the NFL. But having a mobile QB does give it an extra dynamic. I guess in a way it kind of marries the RPO and the triple option.

Yurcich wants to install advanced tempo that can wear out opposing defenses and restrict their ability to communicate before the snap.
“Tempo is there to totally disrupt the lines of communications of defense,” Yurcich said. “Defensive coordinators — and Chris [Ash] knows this better than everybody — they want to see what you’re in, they want to see you line up, they want to signal over to their safety, they want to signal to the Mike ‘backer, they want to see where the tailback is lined up, what’s the guard and center spit on the back side, and they want to call all of that out and then call their defense. So what you want to try to do is eliminate that communication. The faster you go, the more you eliminate that
quote:
Yurcich’s job is to balance the advantages of tempo with disadvantages like running into an extra defender. As a result, it’s his job to reduce the number of plays included in the tempo package and the risks of going three and out quickly that could put a tired Longhorns defense into difficult circumstances.
“If you’re gonna fast, you better be efficient,” Yurcich said
quote:
Players, formations, plays,” Yurcich said. “That’s the philosophy moving forward and that’s what is most important. We gotta get these guys playing fast so that when they come off the ball, there’s absolutely no hesitation and that they know their offensive schemes better than the defense knows their defensive schemes. That’s how they can play their maximum and play to the best of their ability.
quote:
Who are our best 11? Our best 11 may not be our best 11 players — they’re the 11 that play together the best,” Yurcich said.
“I don’t care if it’s 11 personnel, 12 personnel, 22 personnel. Whatever it takes to move the football — and that may differ from week to week depending on who you’re playing from a scheme standpoint. So, agin, it comes back to players, formations — meaning how to you get your guys lined up and get an advantage — and then plays.”
quote:
Limiting and playing with tempo is a key,” Yurcich said. “At the same time, you don’t want to be at a disadvantage and not get your best matchups on the field. So there’s a balance within that.”
Yurcich also considers a 50/50 run-pass balance as ideal, but then quickly noted that it doesn’t matter — his emphasis is on a results-based approach focused on limiting turnovers and putting points on the board.
