Re: Official "What playbook should I use" "What Playbook represents who" etc thread

Getting pretty bored of using LSU's playbook. I kinda want to have a set offensive style next year instead of just using all kinds of formations. Something where I can utilize my power running game, my great 3 receivers i'll have and i'll have more of a pro style QB.

I know it might not seem to make sense with a pro-style QB, as there is a lot of option in this playbook, but I am having a lot of success with Miss State's playbook without running the option much at all. Offset shotgun formations (Miss St playbook has 5 of these) allows for power running out of 3 and 4 WR sets. I stick typically to these formations and have found short, intermediate, and deep passes that work for me. HB dive, zone runs, and a couple toss plays that are pretty successful as well a screen passes to both HB and WR's. There are also 2 different wildcat formations to supplement the running game.

I'm hoping someone can help me out a bit. Basically, I've been using the Syracuse playbook for the last four months or so. I really do like the running and passing game that it offers. However, its missing the following two things that I would like to implement into my offense:

1. Option plays from under center (have no success running it from the gun).

2. A good screen game, including middle screens, and more than a few WR screens.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Try South Carolina. Has a lot of screens, motion, some solid trick plays, and a good amount of option from under center- triple out the I Form, and speed from the Ace.

I would use the Miami (Ohio) one, I think Haywood was Weis's last OC at Notre Dame and it looks like a Pro Spread to me.

I'm looking for a playbook that has designed QB runs, but also has its fair share of I-formation. I prefer offset I, but any will suffice.

I would try out the Nebraska playbook, it has a lot of Ace and I think quite a few I-formation plays. Also has the designed QB runs with some option plays sprinkled in.

Took over Florida St. and lefted Nebraska after 4 years. I got 3 power backs and a wide open style WR core and tall and fast TE's. What playbook could I use to make this offense go though the roof? Michigan St? Florida St? HELP!!! I know I need a playbook that has power running and a wide open all out passing formations. I would like to have lot of shotty and power running formations.

Here's a couple a little more heavy in the Shotgun, but have a good amount of formations w/ HB in a flex position for upfield running:
-Tulsa (also has some Ace and I-Form)
-Florida (w/ some I-Form and a Pistol, nice Goaline package)
-Mississippi St. (dominated w/ Ga Tech using this and rotating backs)

Or give Kentucky's PB a look, very similar to Michigan St but adds a Wildcat and some WR sweeps. I used this w/ Mich St and it felt a little more true to what they actually run.

What playbook is the best fit for Oklahoma? The one they have is good but there is no pistol formations

I use LSU playbook for OU.

You have 2 pistol formations, you still have all your 4 & 5 wide sets, and you still have ur Ace & Iform.

I know this has already been asked, but I didn't see a reply to the original question.

So which playbook would you guys say most represents the Michigan offense under Lloyd Carr? Year two in my project to rebuild Michigan using their old-school style verses the spread.

Check out BYU and Purdue. Both have solid power game with the I-formation, and tons of formations in shotgun. Georgia is good too, it has less shotgun but more ace formations for spreading the ball with the pass

I'm looking for a classic Walsh West Coast Offense playbook, any suggestions?

Tulane is the only thing close, and it's a very modernized take on it. It's my favorite playbook in the game by a long ways.

As someone else said, the Air Raid is based on Walsh's philosophies, but taken to an extreme and adapted to the college game (specifically, taking advantage of the location of the hash marks).

Which playbook has some good non-Wildcat trick formations. Missouri has this split-line "monster" thing that I like.

Im running a teambuilder team, C's across the board in my dynasty. My QB is in the low 80s, and I have much better receivers than RBs. My OL is garbage...my LT is a 60.

What playbook is the best to give me more time to throw? I'm harassed on every passing play. Would a spread w/ short passes give me more time? I would also like some trick formations like that Monster shotgun but thats a side thing.

I use San Diego State's pro style playbook for Brady Hoke.
