OK...Game is 1 Week Away....Whomever QB is, He Should be a Dual-Threat...
So, do we run run run (maybe a split backfield sometimes) with a lot of QB option plays? (Something we haven't done in a while)...or do we stick with a 50/50 run/pass game plan with two QB's who have a lot to prove as passers, especially on third down?

Ito should be even more effective when opposing D's have to also be wary of the QB taking off. BUT...we witnessed the trials and tribulations of a run-only QB during the 0-12 year, so we can only hope one guys shows up and controls the passing game, too!

I foresee a lot of RB draws, WR sweeps, and a lot of quick out passes to the flats early on in the game. Once the running game shows we can get 4/5/6 yards a run then those DBs start creeping up and we do some play action deep shots to Staggers/Isiah.

I believe we will have to use Ito as linebacker bait and hit some short ones over the middle to open things up. They believe Ito is all we have and will defense accordingly.
Defense will have to slow down the run. They will try to run it down our throats and control the clock. This will be a coaching game more than a personnel game I think. Even though they have the personnel on paper to win this one.

I imagine we will see the TE's more involved in the offense this year as well.

I think we will see many 7-8 man fronts with man coverage daring us to throw the ball.

Until we prove we can beat them with the pass I completely agree and was going to post the 7 man front thing myself.

Just need to have a quick hit passing game. The problem with most "dual threat" college QBs is that once heat gets on them they want to tuck and run instead of shift in the pocket. Lot of quick hitches and slants with some screens and play action to move the ball and keep it to keep our defense off the field.
