The TECHmo Bowl never fails to deliver. Every year, Paul Johnson and Bud Foster square off in the season’s best chess match, and Option strategy evolves on live television....

Or, CPJ could call 24 Speed Options to go with 20 Zone Dives and bludgeon Foster’s defense to the tune of 465 yards. 2 plays accounted for well over 50% of the total plays run by the Georgia Tech offense, yet the Foster never came close to slowing them down. Part of that was indeed a scheme choice by Johnson.
Many of the Speed Options were run out of the Tight formation.
