Inside The Huddle: Oregon Spread Option

Here's an inside look at Oregon's read option attack.  The Ducks thrive on putting defenses in tough positions and then forcing them to make quick decisions.

The unique part of Oregon's attack is when they try to isolate the defensive tackle instead of optioning off the end man on the D-line. 

Why does Oregon do that?

I think they're forcing a player who is unaccustomed to reading the option to make decisions on the fly.  Most of the time a D-tackle's job is to plug holes or get to the QB.

There's very little intense "decision making" going on deep in the trenches.  The Ducks are forcing every player on the defense to be accountable for stopping their attack.

If they catch someone sleepin', they're off to the races!

War Of The Roses: Oregon Battle Plan

We're back in the war room to see how the 'Quack Attack' can exploit a vicious Buckeye defense?

My mentality has always been to test a team's strengths to see if they can consistently perform.

In Ohio State's case we know the Buckeye front four is as dominant as they come, but can they show up for four quarters?

War Of The Roses: Buckeye Battle Plan

The fans have spoken, you wanted a Rose Bowl game plan session...well step into the war room.

Let's look at how Ohio State's offense should attack the Ducks.

Now you all know I'm a Senator Tressel disciple so you can probably guess what's next...

Oregon's spread offense, how to stop it

The Rose Bowl sets up to be a fantastic battle of imposing wills.

Will Oregon's offense impose their fast break tempo on Ohio State, or will it be the Buckeye silver bullet defense that flexes it's muscles to pound the Ducks into submission?

There are tons of questions surrounding Oregon's spread offense, and more importantly their bread and butter: the read option.

• What are the keys?
• What are the reads?
• How do you defend it?
  

First of all let's review the spread offense.
