And I’d add, to not lose 16 yards on 3rd and 4.

Very much like BSU that way. Takes advantage of overpursuit.

Mostly agree. But I hate the lineup that uses half the defense.

Yeah, because that one has only resulted in 2 or 3 touchdowns.

Williams is the better option to run that for a lot of reasons.

Once out of like 4 or 5 times it's been run. Also took a difficult spot for

It works amazingly well - Just not when you run it three straight plays

Jesse Pinkman

Exactly!

Throw some wrinkles in off of that play too, and it would work well.

One touchdown. Then once USC saw it once, they were ready for it and stuffed it

One TD vs Utah 2018. One TD vs Western Michigan. One TD vs USC.

That's not a Grimes lineup

Huh? Then who came up with the play and the personnel?

Kalani said they practice that against 15-20 defenders, and tell them where the

It's because misdirection is baked into the offense. It allows for natural trickery. I like it a lot.

That wasn't a trick play

It’s the saint’s taysom hill offense.

Not sure how others feel, but I'm not a fan of the Kafentzis/Tonga/Dayan play.

Ned Schneebly

9/18/19 12:16pm

Agreed. Too much risk. Cannot lose Tonga because of a stupid offensive play

9/18/19 12:29pm

It's probably important to clarify that the Kafentzis/Tonga/Dayan package

I follow you. It is a package, but still a "trick" play.

So would you consider a play action pass a trick play then?

Boo hiss, he is my favorite player on the team. I was making a joke.

9/18/19 2:47pm

Kafentzis is the all time leading QB in Utah history. Dayan was a very good RB

To each his own I guess.

Not saying they don't, but either way they won't get as many reps as the others.
