Unconventional Air Raid? Wait until you see Mississippi State’s defense

Mississippi State’s Air Raid offense will be the talk of the town when Mike Leach returns to Lexington for the first time since he called plays for Hal Mumme. In Leach’s first game, the Bulldogs’ offense shocked the world by defeating the defending National Champions at Death Valley and shattering SEC single-game passing records. Against UK’s porous pass defense, many are concerned to see what the unconventional offense can do at Kroger Field. The more significant schematic concern might actually be on the other side of the line of scrimmage.

Forms of the Air Raid offense are popping up all across college football.
