Anybody out there know what kind of offense Frost plans to run at Nebraska? I hope he brings back the power option attack.

The same one he ran at CF?I'm pretty sure it is the Winged T.

I hear the pro set, it has been very popular lately.
Plus side is we will have had Gebbia and OBrein with 2 plus solid years of college S&C.
Please no.He secretly plans to have Langsdorf come in for Spring practice and teach him how to run that Riley-style offense.
he'll run the plays that work and not run the plays that don't.
Come on brotha...he has to run an offense that fits our talent, it will probably take Martinez a couple years to get the proper S&C and be ready to roll. Plus side is we will have had Gebbia and OBrein with 2 plus solid years of college S&C. They will have some adjustments to make to what Frost wants out of them but I know Frost will taylor his offense around which ever QB wins the battle this summer. My guess is like the other poster, it will be Gebbia and that’s not a bad QB to have running our offense. The young man has already shown he will be a film room junkie and will work his but off the be the best. But we will see Frosts baby (offense system) in full bore once Martinez is rolling after Gebbia is done. Just my opinion and guess.
There has been a lot of tongue-in-cheek in this thread. Are you serious?
The last time I seen Gebbia he looked pretty thin, I'm not sure I'd be pimping their S&C..
And Adrian Martinez isn’t exactly 200 plus pounds either. One has been in high school and the other has been in college D1 S&C for a solid year now.
2 solid years of S&C? Duval has not been here that long.Come on brotha...he has to run an offense that fits our talent, it will probably take Martinez a couple years to get the proper S&C and be ready to roll.

Yes and Osborne's Ground game can be implemented into it. It will be Spread Option FBSpread, Speed, RPO, Running backs in space, RB heavy if you can read into both Frost and Held's inteviews/pressers yesterday.
Nope I was completely joking. And talking out my butt
But unlike some on here I’m NOT giving up on A QB like Gebbia. We don’t have to have a lighting bolt at QB. We needs a QB with brains, can read defenses and make the throws and adjustments. And what I went off of is what I read in reports on gebbia. So no matter what YOU WANT to believe, I wasn’t just blowing smoke.
Also show me where Tom said he was going to the spread. He retired in 97, the spread started to become popular in the mid 80's.
I am guessing he will start out the same he ran at UCF. I am guessing he will have to adapt a bit. Maybe more of a run first mentality.Anybody out there know what kind of offense Frost plans to run at Nebraska? I hope he brings back the power option attack.
The QB is not gonna be in the shotgun 100% of the time. It will be a combination of Osborne's Option attack coupled with a furious passing attack period. In this conference, it has to be that way, however we will still be attacking defense's weakness's relentlessly. Frost has eliminated the deficiencies and weaknesses of Kelly's Offense.A word on the Frost offense:
After reading up about it, it definitely has its base in Chip Kelly's theories of attack, but there are other things about it that remind one of Osborne and other strategies.
From what I gathered, what made Osborne's offenses so good is a combination of the following:
1.) Great athletes.
2.) The Option attack was, for a very long time, hard to defend effectively.
3.) Osborne would also "test" defenses by doing screens and long bomb passes every couple of downs just to completely keep a D on its heels. (This was what they did to Miami and Florida in the NC games very, very effectively). Only a very, very fast defense that could react to change quickly could stop it.
Similarly, Frost takes Kelly's idea of basically always having the QB in the shotgun, and then "testing" the D by attacking in a variety of ways until a weakness is spotted, and then exploited. To wit:
"His offense at UCF is made up of mostly the same concepts (as Kelly's): zone read, pin and pull sweeps and power. However, Frost has evolved it by making it tougher for defenses to key on what they’re doing with pre-snap movements, run/pass options and key-breaking concepts that don’t allow the defense to get mentally settled."
So, it takes Kelly's speed and simplicity idea and further enriches it with a variety of methods of attack.
Basically, unless you have tons of talent, speed, intelligence, and a very, very good defensive staff, this offense is very hard to slow down. You don't really attack it, it attacks you where you suck most.

I said basically always, which leaves room for variation, because it's at base a zone-read offense, isn't it?
JT Barrett lined up under center as well as in the shotgun. Go watch some of his games and most definately wasn't in the shotgun the whole time in the bowl game or against Wisconsin.In this conference it has to be that way he says...
Maybe Ohio State who runs nothing but shotgun formations should be enlightened..
