With installing the new D, can't blame them much for not preparing for something they didn't really have knowledge of .... there's only so much time. They can be blamed. If, as said, they were unprepared - they can be blamed. This isn't something you prepare for on a game by game basis.

I mean, set up five play calls for emergencies and use them by holding up a finger. Then make your normal calls when BYU isn't in a hurry. I mean, its better than players still looking at the sideline when the ball is snapped. At least call *something*. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see getting a call in and they are out of position, but what about not having everyone ready to accommodate the flow of information quickly? This seems like the kind of scenario you have to drill (like a meta-level information flow strategy). This was also a problem last year at least on offense in key situations. Look, if someone you had no idea this would happen, tell the defense what the play calls are going to be if they go no huddle. At least after the first or second series you should be in better shape. You can change the calls each drive. Most of their drives weren't long anyway. Tuck away a few plays and let someone on the field make the call. This isn't rocket science. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
