Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

UW and "fastbreak offense"......

UW played two games last year that would have been considered "fastbreak" type games.

Oregon and Arizona...........

Why exactly do we want to go to this type of game plan? I think if anything it will help the defense in preparation for teams that do play fast. I have a feeling that this years offense will not look much different than last years as far as speed. I say we are going to play at the same speed and work in the no huddle a couple series a game, just like last year.

I think the biggest change will be using a two back set with Sankey and Callier/Washington/Cooper. The two back set looked like it might have some success last year, then the turf jumped up and grabbed Callier.

    Excellent insight.

    Wow, a surprisingly good post. I agree about facing the no huddle in practice can only help our defense. Hopefully, we are much improved against the no huddle teams we play this year.

    I also agree with you about 2 RB sets. I'm not huge on running the majority of our plays from the shotgun, but we do have RB's who can all catch so we should be able to produce some different looks on offense. It will be interesting to see what the plan is on offense. I am hoping that we take advantage of the RB depth and run the ball more, but I'm not counting on it.

    there is no way Sark is completely changing his offensive philosophy, and if he is I will criticize him for it. Stick with what u know best, even if it is shit.
    If we do go full no huddle the doogs will probably say give sark credit for willing to adjust only to go back into their hidy holes when it's a complete disaster

    It will be interesting to see the offensive plans for sure, if not it will be an interesting year. Don't you think?

    I think if we take advantage of the talent at running back we could do well, baring injury. I'm just hoping we can get some good production out of the 2 back set.

    If Sark is just doing this as a stunt to help stop Oregon and Arizona, he's even more clueless than we think he is.

    If we're gonna run the hurry up, the routine of

    1st down and 10: incomplete pass
    2nd down and 10: draw play for 2 yards
    3rd down and 8: pass to covered TE or RB for 3 yard gain
    4th and 5: punt

    will cause Danny Shelton to pass out from exhaustion by the 2nd quarter

    In order to beat an uptempo offense, you have to become......an up tempo offense.

    In order to catch and international jewel thief, you have to become...an international jewel thief.

    In order to catch a rapist, you have to become...a rapist.
    I think I've found my calling as a rapist catcher

    If we like our no huddle offense we can keep it
