Great. Another FCS triple option squad.
The Citadel is not on the caliber of the infamous Georgia Southern squad that about caused Nick Saban to have an aneurysm a few years back. But they run that same dreaded triple option offense with a million cut blocks designed to wear down a defense both physically and mentally.
As a team, they’re averaging over 60 rushing attempts per game and 292 rushing yards per game. The average is good, at 4.8 yards per carry, but nothing special. You either have someone slogging it for a couple of yards up the middle or a running back taking a quick pitch outside and slipping around the edge for 5-7 yards on pretty much any given play, with the occasional play-action pass thrown in.
