1) High percentage of plays w 2 or 3 TEs
2) Run first offense that is keeping the offense "on time"
3) High rate of 3rd down conversions - especially when running
4) Dominating TOP
It's the HH offense people cried for -- one that plays to our proven strengths (RB, O-line, TE) and should help RB recruiting going forward.
I'm looking for any reason to bash the OC but this gameplan all things considered was fine to me. Now if it's the same exact thing against UA...
I went back and charted out every single offensive play. RIP my eyes, right @GrandpaSankey ? It's a small sample size, but the data doesn't support what BTP is suggesting.
In our non-penalty, non-garbage time offensive plays this is what happened:
Formation[/b]
11 personnel - 43%
13 personnel - 29%
12 personnel - 18%
14 personnel - 8%
21 personnel - 1%
55% of our plays were multiple TE sets. Note: I counted Westover as a TE in this, even if he was lined up in the backfield.
Rushing[/b]
Ran to the left side 51% of the time
Ran to the right side 43% of the time
Ran behind the center 6% of the time (Morris sneaks or where I couldn't quite tell)
We ran inside the tackles 86% of the time and outside the tackles 14% of the time.
Our success rates and stats for these runs were as follows:
Left-side outside the tackle: 80% success rate, 45 yards, 9.0 YPC
Left-side inside the tackle: 55% success rate, 146 yards, 7.8 YPC
Middle: 100% success rate, 7 yards, 2.3 YPC
Right-side inside the tackle: 47% success rate, 59 yards, 3.1 YPC
Right-side outside the tackle: 100% success rate, 24 yards, 12.0 YPC
Success rate by runner:
Newton: 40%
Pleasant: 36%
McGrew 78%
Morris: 100%
Westover 100%
Davis 50%
Bynum 100%
Odunze 0%
McMillan 100%
Passing[/b]
We ran play action 8 times, or 33% of the times we dropped back to throw.
Success rate with play action: 50%
Success rate without play action: 40%
I can cut the numbers a few more ways if anyone cares.
