after a 35 yard return from McMiillian-->I'm going Power I left dive behind Teller and McLaughlin for a 3 yard gain.. then Lefty goes for the Home-run early with a combo route-> 20-30 yard Post for ford and a 15 yard out for bucky... safety will see Bucky and jump that route while IFord goes streaking for the TD

Loeffler goes big. Play action with both Bucky and Ford on fly routes. Whoever's more open gets it for a 75 yard TD.

...then I wake up and think JC up the middle for no gain...sigh.

My prediction is an outside zone handoff to JCC to the right side for a gain of 1.5 yards.

I'm going to say similar play, but it goes to the left side for no gain.

Hey ya'll...I don't have enough Turkey Legs to start a new topic yet (I LOVE this forum but I usually don't comment) so i figured this would be the best place to let you know that my band RUTLEDGE will be playing right outside GATE 3 Monday night from 6pm-7:30pm. We're a modern country band that sounds more like a rock band. Below is a video we did with VT before the UVA game last year. Spread the word, hope some of you will swing by and listen to us for a bit. Thanks! GO HOKIES!

2) A hurry up offense, designed to snap as you shift, could be a real challenge for you by throwing off your timing and preventing you from making the blocks you need to execute your D.

The one problem I see with this is that your line can't set up your blocking assignments if you expect the opponent to move because it presents issues if they don't. You could end up leaving a man unblocked due to assignment confusion. Something like this sounds a lot simpler than it is in application.

The Panthers apparently just cut Boykin. For what reason, I have NO idea.

I'm fairly pissed about this from the stance of both a Hokies fan and a Panthers fan. Stupid.

I'll be pretty surprised if Bud doesn't run it at all. He showed a lot of bear looks during the open scrimmages and it was the most effective formation Tech used against the run all year. When Ohio State has a two tight ends or fullbacks on the field, I would expect Foster to use the bear.

But, I won't be shocked by anything Foster does. He's the best schemer in the business.

I really liked how you lined up Bucky's dance moves with the music. Nice attention to detail.

Yessss it's this time of year again!!!

This is a great comprehensive look at the formation. Sometimes I feel a little lost on the other X&O articles, but this one was really clear cut. Keep up the great work!
