UAB Film Review: Offensive Evolution

Related Topics: Nate Tice

Look, I know that it’s UAB, and that we didn’t really learn much of anything. As a result, I’m going to keep this fairly simple and somewhat brief. All year, my primary issue with the offense has been that they don’t use enough backfield action (play-action/downfield RPOs), and are too spread out in their alignments and releases out wide, which makes them vulnerable to man-coverage and stops you from creating easy explosives in the passing game. All season, I’ve been pretty concerned about what LSU can do to get teams with great athletes out of tight coverages like Cover-1 and press quarters, and have been concerned about general efficiency in the passing game.
