This deep pitch play that worked several times seems to be a new wrinkle. Gives a little time for blocks to execute and lets the big johnson get up a head of speed. Team seemed to execute it well. Am I the only one not remembering us doing this in prior games?
They did it once or twice against Stanford or ASU IIRC. But it was definitely a new emphasis. Curious if it was USC specific or something we'll use going forward.
Because I’m a dork, I’m more interested to see whether they run the counters off that. That clip shows jet action, and there’s probably half dozen boot/play actions.
At a minimum, they’re at least showing the boot and if you watch Rome, he turns back like he might get a pass
Rome was the first fake on jet. I'm sure he could get a pass out of that series, but him and Penix turn around to watch the play. I had to trim that clip, ever mindful of bandwidth massacre.
And blocking was teh tits. Giles Jackson gets a good one, and is that Center? that get the final key one on the safety (I think).
