A high level look at Ohio State offense vs Minnesota Defense. Game previously looked at in detail here.

Great look at Split Mid Zone.
LG target is really wide outside, so knows he can be patient and check 2i.
Check out the RG hammer and then climb
RT gets backside hand into chest and control then is able to flip and seal on DT, creating the ally pic.twitter.com/atOagUIp5W

After the whole of football Twitter spent the night trying to figure out this play, turns out the RB was just aligned on the wrong side.
But makes for an interesting Bash/sweep/Gap scheme as is pic.twitter.com/f0K2ZPcSKq

LT comes out flat and then torques the edge to provide the lane
Would like the RT to gain a little more depth with his first step to give a better chance of the takeover, RG does well with stiff arm to give him a chance
Let’s not speak of the RB here pic.twitter.com/0eUPpTqL8p
TE hands a little wide but finishes his block with nice lift when the defender tries to peek inside

OSU vs Minnesota

Minnesota D in a pass defense. OSU checks run. Would like LG to stiff arm (stab) 4i more, given alignment of LB he is climbing to allows him to be patient.
RG late out of his stance, realizes it, so does well to torque upfield.
Appreciate the C duck walking pic.twitter.com/lRpLf3W1tY

Check pass to run. PSLB and DE and exchange gaps. RT needs to support him onto the RG rather than staying glued. Length allows him to recover enough to push LB past
LG gets great initial depth but then misses getting back vertical. Needs to push the C thru and have big play pic.twitter.com/lFJSnWbjrl

Goes off screen, but watch WR to the bottom continue to work his vertical to get back in the CB’s blind spot. CB worried about vertical flips hips early and never gets in phase, allowing WR into blind spot on release and then a 2nd time. WR takes advantage, draws DPI pic.twitter.com/PigO1Wet3q

Think the coaching staff wanted the relief throw? Very next play, same offensive and defensive play calls. Throws the bubble pic.twitter.com/UzOrvZshI3

Think both sides of the OL had the play going a different direction. Odd first game issues pic.twitter.com/FZE08psbX4

I like the idea of going unbalanced and shifting it (OSU gets away with ineligible downfield by covered TE here, #1 supposed to be off).
Leak variation. Fake to RB he runs the rail off play action. TE leaks underneath for throwback high-low. Ran vs Clemson few years ago too pic.twitter.com/Altc9E2MYZ
Especially with young guys, this is why fans need to be patient. Practice is telling coaches more than games. Stroud was sped up, his feet were pretty bad. But eventually he calmed down and it came together. And he wasn't bad enough to be the "problem" early

Ends in an INT, but like the use of formation and motion. Stack 2x2 to 3x1 with inverted TE-Wing. TE gives a hard run key (though safety doesn’t fully trigger), reduced split from WR puts him right in window. Throw/route timing off pic.twitter.com/Yao1Pe5PkY
Multiple ways to teach backside here. But you either need more patience from the LG (stab and allow LT to take over, then work 2nd level)
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) February 3, 2022
Or
You gotta go now. Which means LT needs to gain depth and width on first steps and fight to win playside of 3T so LG can immediately cut D
OSU
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) February 3, 2022
Jet fake with the TE arc. Doesn’t hold DE (intended to take three defenders, hold DE and the take LB and safety)
So issues for OSU getting playside. They’ve always been mostly ok washing past play, but seems they are too behind the play so far in this one pic.twitter.com/4535BGGHiV

OSU loves to punch that cutback off split zone, but would have been much better with keeping the H playside here. Better angles to 2nd level, would have resulted in 3 Minn players stuck backside because they fit it wrong

#2 WR can get leverage on #2 threat. Bunch typically pushed outside defender off for arc. Presnap read of now screen. pic.twitter.com/M0HGWtJdrQ
We want to pin backside LB to backside if possible, but you don’t want to rush. Make sure the 1st level is handled first. LB is a better athlete than you, so if he’s moving fast slow it down and use his speed against him. If you rush it, he’ll blow passed you

Want a little more gallop from the center and a little more foot patience from the RG here to really get behind, but decent example of high leg, low leg, and coming off on LB.
Watch RG and RT finish their blocks. Torque and throw them down pic.twitter.com/vnTtLZ8W7s

Same basic idea as Leak. Half roll one way. Two WR sell that action. Deep over instead of underneath and wheel. Still with the RB under to the flat. Pretty touch throw here pic.twitter.com/NboS5StJCf
What is 3 man combo? C won’t help LG, bc we are getting outside the DE. Tackle will work hard outside bc if End goes inside, RG can seal him and he’ll keep working his path (CB to 2nd level)
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) February 3, 2022
If 3T is inside, C pushes RG onto the DE and takes over.
If End loops, Center has him
All that said, something has to alert you to inside move from the DE. A tilt or a heavy 5, something like that. Maybe that outside flash by RT isn’t that. You won’t just call it though. But it’s an option if you see it

Ahhh I get the throw because the CB doesn’t sink fast and the safety is inside. But look at the bender. I don’t think this is a bad choice given progression though pic.twitter.com/tSnfob6XHO
OSU vs Minnesota
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) February 3, 2022
Good look at Green Cover 2 SIM pressure
Would like LG to get a little more depth here. LT can probably do better making hand contact earlier and reposting, but he’s gotta put the DE onto the LG and can’t. Once he’s not on the LG, has to stick and let looper go pic.twitter.com/vBBpjgGjm4
Play should work anyway with the backside dig holding the backside safety. But add the impact of reverse sequencing and the play side safety still anticipating the corner route and it’s kaput

T Lead. I believe you only pin down with wing if you have a TE/Wing outside of him, bc it allows you to be more aggressive on down block without worrying they scrape over top. Here, Wing is passive, allows DE to penetrate, which cuts off pulling C
RB makes his own block pic.twitter.com/RvJSUIPeKG

Power of condensed formations is ability to add numbers to the opposite side of the formation. OSU finally goes to boot (instead of throwback) with a 4 man flood.
Notice how crosser from the backside makes sure he stays at a different width. Keeps triangle and spacing pic.twitter.com/aTaYtC9wfc
OSU.

Inside Zone.
RT solo block, this is why I don’t like forearm hand placement on run blocks. Get in the pit or under the chest plate and lift and finish. There’s not enough there at the arm to finish
C-RG, hammer him on. Then lift and roll the hips. Don’t just push pic.twitter.com/lcEgN7kgy7
They manage to make it work because the RB makes a free hitter miss, and the LT torques for dear life to keep that cutback open.
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) February 4, 2022
But take aways: uncovered hat placement too often backside. Over reliant on cut back.
Center needs to bring more umph
