Presentation Goals:
1. Share how we went from a collection of plays to a system
and the results of our efforts.
2. Communicate what we believe to be the keys to a
successful zone run game.
3. Identify and illustrate the fundamentals of our zone plays
for each position.
4. Show video cuts illustrating our variations of the play.
Our Zone Running Game :

3 Distinct Zone Plays:
Inside Zone - Read the 1st Covered
Down Lineman.
Outside Zone (OZ) - Read the End Man
on the Line of Scrimmage
Stretch - Read Force Player-Get it
Outside!

Zone Running Game
Went back and studied ourselves versus the top
tier of the conference 2000-2003
Started with some questions
Conclusions about our

run game(03):
We have become scheme heavy while sacrificing being
fundamentally sound
Our schemes do not provide us with a sequence of
problems for a defense.
There is not a logical progression for us. When one
scheme does not work we just try something else.
We cannot effectively practice all of the schemes we have.
Conclusions about our

run game(03):
Our man scheme blocking causes our lineman to become
tentative if the defense presents a new look or movement.
We must simplify our offense by cutting down our schemes,
but make it appear more complicated to the defense by
presenting more looks(formations, shifts, motion).
What we have been using has not allowed us success against
the top tier of our conference.
2004-2006 Offense
1. Attitude - We will attack with a punishing
running game that destroys the defensive line.
2. We will use spread formations & compressed
formations to open up the run & pass. (Expand &
Contract)
3. We will use a base offense week after week.
4. We will adjust with formations, not by adding
new plays.
5. We will take advantage of our abilities with
personnel packages.
The Stretch Play 2004-2005

178 carries for 1,840 yards
21% of our offense attempts in 20042005
10.3 yards per carry
73% efficient (+4) yards
53 explosives(+12 yard runs)
17 TDs
The Stretch Play 2006
68 carries for 409 yards

6.0 yards per carry
12 explosives(+12 yard runs)
4 TDs
Starting TE injured for 6 games/FB was converted TB-175 LBS
Needed to be creative with how we blocked the edge.
Still a good play for us. Became better as the game wore on.
Primary Objectives of the

Stretch Play
To get the entire backfield and line on a wide
railroad track
To force the defense to stretch quickly.
To beat them to the corner with a show of force.
to cut up in a lane they open by pursuing
incorrectly.
Linemen think overtake & flat course to LB

Stretch TB Coaching Points

Distinct Read especially on down & distance situations(know how
much you need)
1st step is open and 2nd is at landmark. Get Shoulders pointed
to sideline. Make the LBs move.
You will have a primary read and adjustments to what happens
on your track
Track adjustment: you read the blockers numbers and opposite
color is showing outside-cut up.
Unblocked opposite color flashes on your track-cut up.
Goal is to get to the perimeter quickly(climb your track) and take
advantage of improper pursuit.
Dip your shoulder inside to set up your blocks.
If you cut up, get back outside after the cut.
