[QUOTE="Randy Carson, post: 850932, member: 766"] I enjoy football at a casual level. However, there are a bunch of engineers (and former players) here who know football and how to do serious analysis. So, here's my question: Would it be possible to analyze the oh, I don't know, top 25 college football teams in the country to figure out which plays are most successful on average? The super-geeky would want to break this down into all kinds of situational analysis (1 and 10, 3rd and long, etc), but it seems to me that if you have a few dozen plays that will average five yards or more consistently, would it really matter? I know there are a lot of anti-CPJ people out there (and in here!), but how many different plays did he actually call in a game? (Sometimes I went crazy when he kept calling a simple dive up the middle over and over and over with no success!) But one thing appeared to be certain: the offense knew those plays and ran them pretty well. But I digress. I read somewhere on the Interwebs that some of the top teams only have a limited number of plays that they run to perfection...but they disguise them by running them out of multiple formations. I mean, how many different routes are there in a route tree? Surely someone has done this type of analysis by now. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
