Re: Rich rod playbook

Can you describe what they ran so we can match an in-game playbook or are you asking what they ran?

If the latter, you might check and see if any of their games from that season are on YouTube.

I'm curious too as I already considered using them using the 1995 roster.

Of course the easy answer would be Arizona since that is where Rich Rod is at now and it was basically his offense. If that doesn't do it for you, try Clemson. That's where Bowden and Rich Rod went after Tulane and Dabos offense largely comes from them.

This is half-true but the amount of wing sets that Clemson uses would be historically inaccurate in my experience.

As it stands, you're in luck. I happen to own a copy of the 1999 Clemson offensive playbook that Rich Rodriguez himself wrote one year after leaving Tulane. I don't have 98 Tulane's but one can reasonably assume that he brought most of his 98 concepts and formations with him to Clemson.

The following formations are listed below (with their NCAA 14 names used instead)

I Form: Normal, Twins, Tight, Slot,

Shotgun: Spread -OR- Spread HB Wk, 5 WR Trio, Trips, Trips Open Str, Empty Quads, Quads Trio, Y-Trips, Trips Over, Trips TE, Bunch HB Str, Empty Y-Flex, Normal, 5 WR-OR-5 WR Trips, Empty Trey.

For a grand total of 18 formations. (I'm pretty sure they used a Slot Offset/Split Slot set in his WVU days, but not so sure about his run with Clemson. Split Slot looks like a more likely option to me, though.)

Now, you could swap in Empty Base or Empty Spread in the stead of one of those other empty sets if you wanted to use your RB as a jet kind of player where he would sweep around like how WVU used Noel Devine or how Florida used Percy Harvin. This was more of a mid-2000's thing for RichRod, though.

There is also a diamond formation given (with 4 WR aligned in a diamond formation out wide) that doesn't exist in NCAA 14, unfortunately.
