It should be a rare occurrence Nebraska ever goes into a 4 or 5 WR formation. Less than 3% of all plays in a game should be out of that. Most plays for Nebraska should have a lead blocker with a TE/FB/HB, zone or gap blocking where the OL is driving back the DL on rushing plays and not the stupid shit Scott Frost does.Do you have an opinion on putting big body in at FB on short yardage situations?

You have to have an OL that is capable of doing so...we also don't have a FB on this team that I'm aware of.It should be a rare occurrence Nebraska ever goes into a 4 or 5 WR formation.

Run the ****ing football, use option plays, use two TE's often, be physical and pound and pound with the rushing attack.
I would have suggested Garrett Nelson a few years ago before he proved he is more valuable on defense.You have to have an OL that is capable of doing so...we also don't have a FB on this team that I'm aware of.
I really like the Ravens offense for Nebraska. They even use the Fullback/TE hybrid a ton for blocking!Do you have an opinion on putting big body in at FB on short yardage situations?

Yep. And you don't even have to have an official FB in a formation to use someone as a lead blocker.I Would Absolutely LOVE to see Yant come in at FB!
Didn't we run Deontre out there as a lead blocker on a short yardage goal line run against Buffalo? I swore I heard that in the first half against Buffalo. That still leaves the option open of play action to a TE sneaking out in the flat.Do you have an opinion on putting big body in at FB on short yardage situations?

Yes he was in as a lead blockerDidn't we run Deontre out there as a lead blocker on a short yardage goal line run against Buffalo? I swore I heard that in the first half against Buffalo. That still leaves the option open of play action to a TE sneaking out in the flat.
I like a 300 pound guy lead blocking and I think he's more athletic than any of our O linemen so there is that too. Hell run him out there on third and 5 some time and watch the defense call time out and switch personnel.Yes he was in as a lead blocker
The moment that I would argue that Scott Frost finally gets it is when he puts 4 OL to either side of the center and also includes a TE on the same side and uses a lead blocker to that side with an option play.
I’d like 21 formation. 2 wr, 2 te, 1 rbYep. And you don't even have to have an official FB in a formation to use someone as a lead blocker.
The biggest reason why teams like Iowa and Wisconsin are able to have the success they have is due to the physical nature of how they run the football. Not many teams out there these days are able to be physical enough on defense to stop it.
The fact that both of our TEs block and catch is a feature NU needs in the B1G. Get your best personnel on the field for the situation at hand.I’d like 21 formation. 2 wr, 2 te, 1 rb
I don’t recall seeing Iowa or Wisconsin in the playoffsYep. And you don't even have to have an official FB in a formation to use someone as a lead blocker.

Rhamir taking the last guy out!
Damian Jackson was also a “breacher” in the military, and I’d love to see him opening some holes for the RB’s to follow.I like a 300 pound guy lead blocking and I think he's more athletic than any of our O linemen so there is that too.

I suggested that a day or so ago. Him and hammerhead Garrett Nelson. NU really needs to ramp up the lack of physical play of the OL. Once the defense knows there is a physical aspect to this offense, it slowly starts to open things up on offense.Damian Jackson was also a “breacher” in the military, and I’d love to see him opening some holes for the RB’s to follow.
You likely would be better to bootleg AM to the weak side and hope he can break something long.The moment that I would argue that Scott Frost finally gets it is when he puts 4 OL to either side of the center and also includes a TE on the same side and uses a lead blocker to that side with an option play.
Beautifully blocked. Why not run this formation anywhere on the field?
Yesssss !!!I Would Absolutely LOVE to see Yant come in at FB!
What the heck is "gap blocking"? How do you block a gap? You never did answer my question about your "shield" and "zone" blocking rants.

just look at that fn hole
Confuse defenders and draw them away from the play.A 4 receiver set is overkill IMO.
When a QB doesn’t look at more than one or maybe two receivers why have 4?

You do know that Martinez continually threw to a second 3rd and 4th option last Saturday, right?A 4 receiver set is overkill IMO.

Well duh. Now answer the questions I asked based on what you stated. What is a "shield" block?Shield is not the same as zone blocking based on what you want the OL do to the defender. For example, Iowa zone blocks but is taught to drive the defender back.
I think "shield" blocking is something Frost and Austin invented.Well duh. Now answer the questions I asked based on what you stated. What us a "shield" block?
What is "gap" blocking?
I know what zone blocking is, never heard these terms. Explain, if you can.
I' heard of c*ck blocking.I think "shield" blocking is something Frost and Austin invented.
