Ye Olde Question: What will be the first offensive play on Thursday?

[AE 87]

Well, I don't know if you heard.... we run a player-based system, not a scheme-based system. And the coaching staff inherited a roster with 13 RB and "zero" tight ends. It's only logical.

LOL
I think you managed to hit the top 3 comments from our coaches that hit me like sand in the face while I'm trying to add optimism to my support.

I assume the coaches are gonna want to gauge the Oline of Clempsun. Smash right up the middle with Jerry Howard, get the defense off kilter and then spread them out. We are a team of running backs, run em.

 

[Gtbowhunter90]

Although we may have no choice but to go run heavy if we cant get pass protection across the line. This will be the first time a Tech QB will consistently step up into the picket and make good throws in a long time.

Statue of Liberty play. Tobias grabs the ball out of Lucas’s hands then throws it 45 yards down field to a streaking camp for a touchdown.

Sounds cool in theory

 

[GoGATech]

11 personnel. It's going to look like a RPO with some deep routes, but Mason is going to slip out into the flats and catch a pass after the play action, 11 yard gain.

It'll be funny to see a triple option only on the first play.

For the love kc God though, please line up under center for run plays.. PLEASE!

Would be very surprised. Pretty sure it's shotgun all the way from here on out. It'll be alright.

 

[YJMD]

Screen pass to a TE.

All run plays? Wouldn’t that kinda telegraph what were going to do?

Nobody else has brought up this old chestnut yet, so I'll start.

I think it will be a post to Brown. If I was Coach, the first read I'd want from the Tigger D is if they have anybody who can keep pace with Brown. If we spring him or come close, the game gets a lot different right off the bat. It would be like throwing to Waller on the first play in the 2013 Georgia game; all of a sudden we knew we could hit a big play of Ugag and we kept doing it.

Usually the qb is so jacked up with adrenalin he overthrows a first pass bomb.

The same as the first play from the spring game. It will be friggin epic.

 

[alentrekin]

4-wide, trips and 1. Camp is wide on one side, Carter, Brown and Graham trips. Graham lines up off the line, then steps further back after the snap. Quick screen to Graham off the snap. Deep post to Camp from Graham. 7-0 Jackets after 18 seconds. We then fumble 2 times and throw 6 interceptions, ultimately losing 52-13.

Gonna be fun:

Yup, the RPO where the back keeps it and then throws is another goodie.

I understand your position. We are a developmental program. It only makes sense that we have developmental fans, too.

Re: our first play, coaches were dropping hints all summer about our new "base" formation. I may be jumping the gun in sharing this with you, but I want you to get on board. It's called the "effort-based" formation. Expect lots of effort on the first play.

How much effort will there be on the 2nd play? The last?

Depends on if they’re in the effort formation.
