WVU is in the famous diamond formation. I’m sure most of you are familiar with this formation, but for those who might not be the diamond formation is when the QB is in the shotgun formation four yards behind the center (similar to the Pistol alignment), and has two players on either side of him and the RB behind him.
In this particular diamond formation, the players to the side of the QB are the FB and TE. Often times, the FB and TE are used if the offense is loading up on the run blocking and needing bigger bodies in there to lead block.
