Sorry for the incomplete sentence. I meant why do you think it is easier than other offenses?

Why do think the opposite?

edited do to a factual error. Sorry about that.

You're mostly correct except center is generally your most athletic lineman for this type of offense.

Snicker if you will but he was an all state TE in Ohio and I think he would have had a full scholarship to play TE at OSU had he not decided to go to the NBA.

Sorry for the delay in responding I was at work. I meant that the increased stances and techniques that were required by the use of the pistol and diamond formations limited their overall effectiveness making the o-line appear worse than what they would have been without those formations. The...

Say what you will, but the offenses of 2011 and 2012 were better than last year and I'll tell you what it was primarily because of the extra crap that was put in and a QB that was not willing to take a hit; and please don't tell me it was because of the offensive line play as somehow the 2 are...

That make more sense. Thank you very much for responding so quickly.

Eric, the team is not practicing on Tuesdays and Thursdays? The breakdown looks more like a spring practice schedule then fall camp. When did this change?

Thanks for posting.

Your right about the points per drive but I needed to put it in there so it could be multiplied by the yds per drive. It was a formula I came up with back in the 90's to determine the relative strength of football teams. Of course I did not have access to the number of possessions for a team...

I like (X/A)(Y/A) X= Points given up on D or scored on O, no special teams returns for touchdowns A= # of Possessions Y= Yards given up or gained Obviously the higher number for offense the better and the lower number the better for defense.

I know you are asking to Ibeeballin but I think I'll respond. Did you get those quotes from the website that I provided? That website is designed for high school football and coaches there off. It is speaking to sizes of schools not only 2-3 thousand high school kids in it but also to schools...

If you are looking for basically what and why things are going on check out this web site. It gives you a good overview. http://flexboneassociationacademy.com/ Just a warning, its is kinda an advertisement for getting coaches to hire them to come out and hold camps for there teams but the...

Actually looking back the 3rd one probably is also. The Term. I'm used to is that a belly option refers more so to the reverse pivot, or the spin, of the QB on those two plays. The supplement play to that would be the give to the B back on the play side. You're right that the action of the...

AE the 2nd one is neither, it is a double option though. It really is a belly option.

It's because it doesn't. I think what wingsrlevel is trying to say is that because of where the d tackle lined up the play was changed from midline to something else pre snap which would have been done by the qb. Then it was the qb and or Laskey fault for running the wrong play depending what...

What are we using to define the ranking of offense and defense or is that up to the individual?

The dive back is not "reading" anything as you are intending. If the ball is still there when he gets to a point he will take it. He does however read the block of the 1st man on the line of scrimmage inside the dive read for where he is supposed to go, but I don't think that was what you were...

So are you saying that total yards given up per game is the best way to determine the 20 best defenses in college football?
