Just tell her that it's our caveman nature to compete. Knowledge is everything.

2 more flexbone questions:
- What is a realistic ratio of run vs pass over a season for flexbone team?
- When simming - what would i need to put the run/pass slider at to achieve something close to this?

Thanks!

If I remember correctly, Georgia Tech was approximately 80/20 last year on run attempts vs. pass attempts.

As far as sliders, you would have to do some trial-and-error testing.

Welp, its decided, im going to give the Flexbone a try in dynasty. Probably start out with a smaller school, maybe tulsa and as i get the recruiting and execution down, start an online dynasty with it.

My plan after seeing some videos and playing the demo is to finally go back to the different options after getting away from them the last few years since they didn't work too well.

My biggest hope is that the rocket toss actually works sometimes and that the B back runs are more effective so I can run the flex exclusively.

If not, another year of the Malzahn system, which is my second favorite offense.

You can always have the best of both worlds and set up a custom playbook.

I plan to primarily be a triple option guy, but I don't like alignment on 'bone' formations for obvious passing plays. (except for 'Slot'). I want to be in Shotgun in 3rd and Long. It's not like it's a big surprise you're going to pass in that instance, plus you can still mix in some shotgun run plays to keep teams honest.

I think I read this article every year after I see Georgia Tech play the first time. So interesting to me http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vau...2431/index.htm

The greatest offensive formation ever created!
