Since I'm retarded, give me an example of 20 personnel....?
2 backs, no TEs. First number in “20” is the number of backs in a formation, second is TEs.

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you! So 12 is 1 back, 2 tight end then. Look at my ass learning football on a Wednesday!2 backs, no TEs. First number in “20” is the number of backs in a formation, second is TEs.

Have always wondered.....where did the names come from? Who the hell thought of Hippo? And do others use that but different names?Yes sir. Number of WRs is left off, but the total grouping equals 5. So in 12, it's 2 WRs. 20 is 2 backs, 3 WR.
12 is Nebraska's base package which they call Hippo.

sorry didnt see it2 backs 0 tight end
Would love to see some CCU 2 back stuff with Yant/Stepp as the dive ready, Morrison/Ervin as the pitch read.2 backs, no TEs. First number in “20” is the number of backs in a formation, second is TEs.

Huh I thought 11 would be our base. They use both a ton and I haven't done any stats on it exactly.12 is Nebraska's base package which they call Hippo.
oooohhhhhhhh light bulb click. The goal of Frost's spread is to put defenses in conflict with 5 weapons on the field at all times that the defense can't defend......click2 back 0 TE
Cockeyes is a 21 personnel
2 back 1 TE
10 personnel
1 back 0 TE
So when we are on defense you will sometimes see boards being held up with 2 numbers. That is often to let the defense know what kind of personnel they are in. Or at least that is what we did.
Our talent makes it tricky to match personnel because we have some tweeners (Allen/Nixon/etc...).

The goal is to spread a defense horizontally and vertically. Then pair that with a power run while putting a defender in a spot where he is always wrong.oooohhhhhhhh light bulb click.

I mean how do you defend Allen? You try and cover him with a LB and he toasts him in the pass game, but you use a DB and we can run the ball or win on swing passes.You see the evolution of offenses though? 21 personnel now is so much different than what it use to be. 21 use to be I-back, fullback, tight end. Now, it’s two running backs and a tight end or maybe even an Hback. Defenses use to be able to treat 12 and 21 the exact same. That wouldn’t be the best idea now…

In order to do that you need to be able to have a weapon at every spot.
What has been missing the last few years is a couple of things...
- Blocking on the perimeter
- Ability to win 1-1 vertically
- Toure did this against he best CB in the B1G
- Ability to have a consistent RB run game
You saw flashes of it in 18, but you didn't have the talent at your Z in 18 that you will have in 21 and you are more talented at TE. You also will have similar talent on the OL and I will reserve judgement on RB. RB in 18 you had Oz rush for 7 yds a carry and Mo was your second choice.
I definitely see the evolution. It's just the terminology and function I'm somewhat stupid with. Sometimes I understand where and why and how things are done, sometimes I'm clueless.You see the evolution of offenses though? 21 personnel now is so much different than what it use to be. 21 use to be I-back, fullback, tight end.
