    What teams are running a consistent Two Back Offense?

    If that a thing of a past? Only for Special Plays?

    Any particular reason it cannot work?

    It seems a new offense comes in and everyone forgets about the old offenses

    Still likes a Modified 4-6 Defense . . ..

    Presumably a 46 as in Strong Safety Doug Plank, #46. A modified dime defense would probably expectorate a two-and-two-thirds-dozen-point lead in upstate New York against a team you had beaten the week before. The 46 is only allergic to Italian QBs from Pennsylvania at either the very start or end of their careers.

    Longhorn network had UT/A&M replays this weekend. I think it was '96, UT was running a split back set with Ricky Williams and Priest Holmes. That's pretty strong.

    Nah, use an extra TE instead, because they are better blockers and receivers.
