Red Zone Offense

[TrueFloridian]

Totally forgot him. If the interior is as good as you guys think we can go basic pro-style heavy formation with FB lead iso runs and play action to Jordan on the in-breaking route off that. It's good to have multiple red zone looks.

I view Mallory's role as a seam-stretcher between the 10s and jump ball option in the red zone. He doesn't have the route running chops that Jordan has in the middle of field.

The true frosh Payton and Hightower both have elite body control for jump balls and fades. Mallory and Irvin both caught nice redzone balls in the spring game. You add in Brevin in the slot. All of these guys are an upgrade over Cager. Then you add in Realus and Tate. Tate is like a wildcat RB that's a real threat to throw. They have to respect him throwing unlike Dallas back there. The possibilities are endless.

What we do not want to see anymore is a FB dive 3 times in a row to get a yard. Nor throwing fades 2 to 3 times in a row on the goal line.

I'd like to see Tate do a Tebow jump pass with seconds on the clock to beat the Gators. Kinda like poetic justice.

3 TE sets with Brevin, Mallory & Irvin Jr, plus Realus George at FB.

You can run a Jumbo with max protect out of those looks & Red Zone isn't necessarily just predicated on power runs.

There's dozens of ways to score (Beavis laugh) in the RZ if you're creative enough.

- You can have a Deejay or Cam come out of the backfield on a play action roll out.
- You could have Tate come in & a run a Zone read option.
- Have Mallory run a peel off into the back of the end zone off a PA fake.
- You can go 5-wide & run a quick out passing play to the seam with a RB or slot WR.
- You can go Shotgun quick read play action & throw it to a TE or quick slant to one of the WR's
- Outside toss run to Deejay or Cam
- Philly Special

There's several ways to get in the end zone, everything isn't just Fades or runs right up the middle. Richt was an awful play caller that never utilized his weapons & had no creativity whatsoever. Any OC with half a brain understands that modernized offenses have multiple formations & looks from which you can score from within the Red Zone.

As long as its not a fade to mike harley we should be fine. Trust in enos.

Matt Canada's Red Zone Shove Pass

There was a practice report a few weeks ago that kind of described a shovel pass option similar to that Canada play. Would be nice to see as a variant.

Polendey has gotta be ready for red zone situations by now right? It’s his third year in the program, he shouldn’t be getting pushed around anymore

I think he's going to help out a lot this year in the run game
