Auburn and Tennessee's spread offenses are night and day different.
Our offense is predicated on spreading the defense with 3, 4, and 5 WR sets.
Auburns is predicated on spreading the defense out of tight formations and bunch sets and using a blocking H Back, counter plays, double team blocks, pulling guards,and counter plays in creating angles and seams for his QB and running back. Quite often the plays are preset plays designed for the QB to keep, which we do not do.
Most teams using the zone read, Tennessee included, have their quarterback reads the defensive end away from the playside and if the defensive end comes down back down the line of scrimmage, he will keep the football. In Auburn's inverted veer, the read is to the playside and both the quarterback and running back run the option off the playside defensive end. The running back's path is to run to the outside as if running a sweep or taking an option pitch. Auburn will also pull a guard who will take a playside linebacker and the H back will line up to the playside and take out an outside defender for the running back.
First of all, both Jennings and Dormady are EEs, so we won't be able to greyshirt either of them.
I do want Gibson to come here because he's a special athlete, but he will be way behind dormady and Jennings when he gets here in June.
Our coaches are like the others when they tell a player one thing and another happens. Look at Creamer and Dews for those examples.
Ah more conjecture by you I see. While we are at it can you tell me the winning powerball numbers?
They are different. It depends on which defensive end that they are reading.
In our zone read, our QB reads the defensive end away from the play side.
The read option is reading the play side defensive end.
They may sound alike, but they are different. The read option is more QB running oriented, where as the read option has less QB running.
The QB has an option to keep the ball in both offenses, but the zone read is a quicker read and one used with the QB as a weapon more so than the zone read.
You don't like it, argue with several football coaches who have discussed it at length in various publications.
"There are so many domino pieces that have to play out, but I just don't see Torrance Gibson coming to Auburn"
Which QB do you see Auburn landing?
"Either Francois or Deandre Jackson or no one else besides Queen
I think Gibson is a silent to Tenn."
