What is our Run Scheme?

[MT-hurricane]

I do not understand what Dawson is doing with our run game. Not only are we very predictable, the scheme just does not make sense to me and I’m surprised we’ve been able to get decent RB’s with what we do.

We use bunch formations and then run right up the middle every time. There are no run lanes. Truly a 3 yards and cloud of dust scheme, just done out of shotgun formations.

There’s a reason Lyle was the best RB today, because he has the ability to bounce it outside of the massive clog in the middle created by these bunch formations when Martinez and Fletcher cannot. I don’t blame Fletcher and Martinez though, they have no lanes to run through and they’re not quick enough to bounce it outside.

Up the middle and a cloud of dust.

I get it ...but we ran for 230+ and over 7 ypc today.

The center isnt athletic enough to pull, so that limits things.

The wham power inside zone scheme.

A.k.a....i run air raid but Mario told me part of my pay is dependent on annual rush yards

We lean on teams in the run game and more often than not you look up and we’ve got 150-200 yards rushing at the end of the day.

Uncreative.

Lyle should be the starter and it really isn’t debatable. Martinez and Fletcher are solid but Lyle is dynamic. Much faster and hits the hole 100mph.
Him at tailback makes this O very hard to stop.

We run inside zone, duo, counter (multiple variations), dart, tackle trap, outside zone, insert and toss off the top off my head this year.



We major in duo and it hits differently based on formations.

Run game is the least of our worries and we’ve imposed our will in nearly every game this season on the ground. It’s not fancy but it’s got the job done and helped us be the top 3rd down conversion team in the country.

A bit much, but I can't understand a reason Lyle was shelved.

I don’t think our RBs get enough credit.. the play calling does nothing to help them.. most of the time they have to make something out of nothing

I doubt it's what Dawson wants to run.

I think insiders have said that Mirabal and Mario have an input in the scheme.

It's worked well enough with Cam throwing, but it could be better.

CIS, gonna CIS. Against P5 teams, the Canes are averaging 165 yards per game on the ground. I don't care if they're running a combo of the Wing T and the wishbone. They're getting it done on the ground. It's not flashy, but who cares?

We’ve got athletic linemen who can pull and we never do it. No pulling, no counters, nothing. Inside zone until you die

Because we played Wake Forest. We have not played one team who has a good run defense. If we are fortunate enough to make it to playoffs I’ll be shocked if we run the ball well. We play a team like UT and we have no chance of doing anything on offense aside from Cam’s heroics. The numbers from today cannot be trusted, our run game stinks.

He was hurt

Who did we play that has a run defense with a pulse? Level of Competition is masking things IMO.

Hang on...are you saying IZ and duo are NOT the same? Asking for a friend
