[QUOTE="Faulkner475, post: 250807, member: 995"] Here's the thing about playing against 8 in the box. That's an advantage for Tech's offense. 8 in the box means 1 high safety, and some kind of cover 3 concept. What that allows you to do is pressure vertically with 4 players, and make the middle 1/3 defender choose, and he'll always choose wrong. What Tech has had trouble against isn't 8 in the box, like against Mercer (some) and Vandy (a lot). It's a 7 man box, with some kind of quarters or cover 2 concept behind it. This negates the 4 verts threat, and forces execution of the base offense. That's the where the issue has been against defenses with, as BC's coach would call them, dudes. Tech needs to execute the base stuff to get that 8 man box, and then it's big play time. If opponents can stuff rocket, triple, counter, and midline with 7, there's no way to stretch the field vertically. So, as much as some would like to throw the ball more or stretch the defense vertically, the adage holds true just as it does in the NFL: you have to run the ball to throw it. [/QUOTE]
