Looking for Shotgun w/ Running Back at QB

[bb9]

I know I came across this somewhere. What teams have a playbook where you can line the running back up at quarterback without being in the Wildcat? Was Texas Tech one of them?

Mississippi State has a formation (or two maybe) where you can do this, outside of having two Wildcat formations to play with.

Damn good Playbook.

Re: Looking for Shotgun w/ Running Back at QB

any playbooks that feature the wildcat formations while also featuring the power I formation?

Pretty sure Auburn's does. It's a spread offense with Mississippi States/UF the best of them in SG with 2-3 other under the center formations.

+1 auburns playbook is the most intense ive ever used. Every formation that matters in there.

Indiana has the Wildcat as well, they are a fun team with Tovarich's Roster.

Mississippi State's playbook has a bulldog heavy formation, wr or rb can take snaps.

Ole Miss has I, weak, and strong formations along with the Wildcat..


Auburn playbook is legit as well it is more spread than under center, but they do have some under center looks.

Heh. Almost none of these responses answer the OP's question. He's looking for SG formations that have the HB behind the center, but not in the wildcat.

That's a tough question to answer since you'd have to go through the packages of the various formations. As someone mentioned earlier, Mississippi State has a couple. In addition to their wildcat spread, you can get a HB behind the center in their bulldog heavy formation as well as I think 2 more foramtions, 1 4 WR set and 1 5 WR set. Florida also can put a HB in their gator heavy and there's probably a fair number of pbs that have a package to put the HB behind the center.

I believe that Auburn's playbook have a sub package in a few of the 4WR sets that puts the HB at QB. I used it for a while and seem to remember that being the case.

Re: Looking for Shotgun w/ Running Back at QB

Florida's Gator Heavy and Miss. St. Bulldog Heavy have a package swtich called 'Quick QB' IIRC. Depending on what I've played with, I've had it sub in the scrambler backup QB, a WR, or a HB. I don't know what the speed prerequisites are that makes it decide which player to sub in, other than if your roster is full of slow QBs you'll get a WR or HB.

I think there is also a WR3 QB package somewhere in Florida's playbook too.
