    These plays will automatically slow down the D Tackles run on pass plays, they would have to look for F-blocks and trap blocks before rushing the QB.
    Double team the D tackles on pass plays.
    Too many things could have been done that weren't.
    block with a slot receiver on the D tackles back side.
    Influence block.
    Too many ideas.
    Traps out of a 2 back set is old school. Naturally, I like it. Well executed trap plays are great. Execute them like the Steelers of old and we couldn't be stopped but it takes multiple practice reps.

    Re: What's Your Suggestions for LA Tech Offense?

    I love trap plays. I played TE in jr high and would crash down into the blindside of the DT on the old "43 toss trap." One game I clobbered the DT four times by the 3rd qtr and after that 4th time I asked him, "Hey, bud, you ever gonna learn?" Ah...nope!

    But, OL have to be able to move to execute trap blocking, and after watching our statues, all with huge knee braces on, I doubt they can move.

    I think Henderson is great. I think our current deficiencies keep him from maximizing his talent. If the hole is clogged when he gets the ball, he has to try and make something happen laterally. I don’t think that’s his strength. Tucker does better in that situation.

    Against BYU, our O line were getting pummled by those 3 BYU guys. We looked foolish trying to run the draw.

    ......and I think that was more a sign of our weakness rather than BYU's strength. Those 3 stooges did little to slow down UTSA last week. UTSA's two QB's combined to complete 24 of 33 pass attempts (72.7%) for 287 yds, 2 TD's and 1 INT, in the Roadrunners' 27-20 loss to BYU. It should be noted that former LSU QB Lowel Narcisse (17 of 20, for 229 yds, 2 TD's and 0 INT's) performed much better coming off the bench than UTSA's starting QB Frank Harris (7 of 13 fr 68 yds, 0 TD's and 1 INT). Had Narcisse played the whole game, I believe UTSA could've won.

    There is only one way to go (up). But they will be facing a much more stout defensive unit than UTSA provided last week.
    The game was against UTEP, but I know what you mean.

    Re: What's Your Suggestions for LA Tech Offense?

    Why won't Skip call a "Quick slant" pass play? What looked like an oversight at first is now simply looking like stupidity on Holtz's part. WHO IS CALLING THESE F%$#$@g PLAYS?

    Against Marshall, with only 6 seconds to go until halftime, Tech had 3rd down and one yard to go for a TD that would have brought the halftime score to 14-10, Marshall. But Holtz called another stupid "Henderson up the middle" run, against a Marshall defense that had clearly "sold out" and put 11 in the box. Of course, we ran the play anyway and failed, and the clock expired with Tech getting nothing out of this long drive before halftime. Just sad. And very bad coaching.

    The correct call on 3rd down would have been a "Quick slant" pass to one of our very capable WR's. It's an easy play to run in less than 6 seconds. Throw it low and hard against Marshall's sold out defense, and either our WR catches it for the TD, or the pass falls incomplete in the end zone with 2 seconds or so still remaining on the game clock. If necessary, Tech could have still kicked a FG on 4th down, and gone into the locker room at halftime trailing Marshall 14-6, and still received the ball first in the 2nd half.

    Guys....this is not hard stuff. But, Holtz instead ran a run play that required the ball to be handed off 5 yards deep in the backfield.......against a defense that was clearly beating us on the line of scrimmage all night. STUPIDITY is the only word I can think of to describe these coaching decisions.

    I felt like they should have asked them to review this play.

    The other view, from the back of the EZ shows it better. I think the ball broke the plane of the goal line and that's all it takes for a TD.

    They should have used his timeout to challenge the spot. From this back angle it looks like his knees dont hit the ground until his body does.

    Re: What's Your Suggestions for LA Tech Offense?

    The best offensive strategy going forward is for Holtz to take himself out of the equation. His perspective of things is out of wack because he’s too involved. Him micromanaging things is too predictable to the opposition. They’ve seen the same schemes for years. If we know what he’s going to call then the other team does too. We almost never surprise anybody with what play we run. Bottom line is it doesn’t really matter much what the players do when the coach calls the wrong play, mismanages the clock or doesn’t use his timeouts wisely.
