They need to dump it or scale it way back. We had a rhino on 26/51 snaps and an extra OT on 4 more. 60 percent of your offense with a 6th lineman and that’s not counting 4th string TE Hoffman playing half the game

Just a horrible scheme and use of personnel. Can you imagine Harbaugh Fisch or Kiffin running this nonsense? Or urban Meyer?

My new game breakdown series is up for the offense, Game Session is my favorite thing I've done. - By gbmcq September 6, 2026 at 04:16:22 PM

    - absolutely. frankly thought they gave Bryce something to work with (seeing that every dropback video). run blocking is pitiful. also thought Western spammed linemen and LBers in all gaps* - By 6p September 6, 2026 at 05:40:37 PM
    - I see PFF graded Evan Link as the lowest (58.3) lineman. How the hell does he keep seeing the field?* - By UMdad September 6, 2026 at 04:53:37 PM
      - Link was pretty good to close out the year, and his skill set is better suited for guard. Intuitively, he should be better there. Probably just needs reps.* - By Bluebuck September 6, 2026 at 05:04:51 PM
    - I would not have expected that after seeing the vid on every BU dropback...is seemed for the most part he did not have much time to survey the field... - By ajs September 6, 2026 at 04:48:55 PM
      - if you are using 6 OL plus a backup TE, there are only two receivers * - By Rich September 6, 2026 at 05:01:00 PM
        
        not necessarily. depends on the formation and who is or is not covered up.* - By ajs September 6, 2026 at 05:14:32 PM
- Without looking yet - any chance you did a breakdown of Rhino vs standard personnel** - By xcheck September 6, 2026 at 04:28:57 PM
  - There is data on RHINO sets because of grades for Beigel and Hoffman. Surprisingly, they did well, while the rest of the OL struggled. So basically they went heavy for the run game, those extra players did fine, but it failed because of issues at other spots.* - By gbmcq September 6, 2026 at 04:37:40 PM
    - I'm guessing the heavy package telegraphed our intent and allowed Western to overload us at the point of attack * - By Spirit September 6, 2026 at 04:39:28 PM
