If he has, he certainly hasn't kept any.How many read options has Haskins run this year? Like any?
How many read options has Haskins run this year? Like any?
He's had several RPO's where he can stick it in belly of RB and then let them ride on an outside sweep, or he pulls it out and generally hits a receiver on inside slant. We've shown that several times in both games.
I don't think there is much need for Haskins to run true zone read on the run though. They're doing more definitive downhill runs, and mixing in a lot of counters and pulling guard, tackles, and even the center.
When you have a QB as effective as Haskins, you don't need to risk him in the run game to keep offenses honest. Defensive secondaries are already backing off the LOS way more than Barrett ever saw. And it's not like Weber/Dobbins are struggling......their YPC is right in line with what it should be.
Our offense has been a juggernaut so far and it's a breath of fresh air.
The defense has not looked great, but last night TCU had a great game plan, and there players made a lot of plays. I have to imagin some of the issues we are having are caused by youth on the team, some players have taken some bad angles and in the wrong spot. Outside of maybe PSU and UM we won’t see a offense that can play at that pace again until maybe the playoffs. This game should put a lot on tape on what we need to clean up before PSU.
But man this offense is something special. I think as the year goes on, we will be able to add in the QB option run at times and just destroy teams. The running game had been very simple, not much creativity yet because we have not needed it.
Anything new on Nick? I know he's out against Tulane, but I haven't seen anything officially ruling him out for Penn State.
Shiiiit. Looks like the speculation that he'd be out about a month was pretty accurate.
