Correct, the qb is 100% dictating everything. That somewhat lack of of a fuller commitment is the primary drawback of the quicker mesh, particularly if you have an athletic read that may take a step or two inside to show taking the dive before popping out and taking the qb. In this and other...

The midline is typically better used against odd number DL fronts, including a standup LB.

On old school option, there used to just be a loose mesh and the qb would ride the mesh with the bback. the bback would have a loose grip on the ball and the qb would decide to pull or give, and if he gave , the bback would clamp down on the ball, more based on timing than feeling the qb let...

It is hard to say what play that was. The center missed his block on the backside linebacker. If it was a 3O the tackle blocked the wrong guy and should have blocked down and laskey should have gotten the ball. Although the way the A back shot up the hole, I think the tackle blocked the right...

Not an option, but what is interesting with this play is that in the spring game byerley seemed to have a pretty good grasp of the offense and I am curious if this was the original play call or if he read the defense and audibled to it. For the not an option statement see @nodawgs above, DT -...

Almost. The main difference between the veer and midline is on the midline, the dive read is typically the DT and the pitch read is the DE. On the veer, the dive read is typically DE and the pitch read is the next guy, usually OLB. As a result of that, the b back usually runs inside the DT on...

I disagree. It is the midline, but he is reading the dive and pitch. A lot was predetermined when vad was the quarterback, but typically the midline is a triple option, you have a dive read and a pitch read. Burley has the ability to read the option, so I would assume that is what you see. The...

Very glad to here about Devine. If the above is true for the rest of the summer, I could definitely see him getting ample PT. It could be another long season though without a decent right tackle.

I would as well. There is no doubt that Custis is a baller.

I was thinking the same thing. Legget looks like a beast. Travis who?

Questionable opposition, but JT ran a really nice trips midline against Alabama state last year. Godhigh had a great block on the play.

No worries, looking forward to the game tonight. I actually agree with a lot of what you are saying and now that you have posted it everything I saw makes more sense. That style of defending will be extremely difficult against teams like Clemson, UM and UNC that always have speed.

The back shoulder throw was a very nice throw and nice catch. The coverage was good on that play. I wasn't counting stats but there were no interceptions and our quarterbacks probably completed 60-65% of their passes. Not to say they are going to be bad but the two most concerning plays were...
