Part 3: Lincoln Riley Study, Play action and RPO Game
Play Action Passing Game
There play action game is very good. Here they run an out with #1 and a vertical with #2 as Baylor looks like they are playing trap coverage.
1145 Baylor 2018
The Oklahoma play action game is very good as they run it on early downs off their various run actions.
Protection:
Out of 2 back you will see different variations and plays.
#1 Boot
#2 Play action vertical game with full slide 7 man protection
2 back bootleg
Now, this may be an Rpo and has some zone read elements, with the Qb reading the DE, the nice part about this it is a designed pass to the HB and the wr are blocking downfield, which makes me thing it's an RPO. If the DE Takes QB I assume he gives it.
#2 Play action with full slide protection
Here's some examples of some full slide with both backs picking up off the egde from 2 different sets, both pistol and split back.
Vs Iowa State in 2020
Here they go full slide off the run action vs Iowa State. They get some nice double teams on every Def Lineman, even the left DE with the 2 RB. They run a go route and comeback vs cover 3.
RPo vs UCLA
Split zone with QB
motion #27 who often lines up as a tight end into the backfield. They have two arrow routes with the slots vs man coverage.
Crack Screen Game
3rd and 1 vs Oklahoma State
They Jet motion and throw it to the jet man off play action. Still trying to determine if this is an rpo and because it is man coverage they throw it to him or a predesigned throw. Nice design, could be an rpo as it looks like the QB was reading the OLB. That's my guess, If man they give the ball. The ball is thrown behind the LOS so they can block downfield.
2nd and 10 vs Oklahoma State
Another crack screen against Oklahoma State. The #1 wr runs off and they crack with the #2 on the LB and the Tackle blocks the Alley defender. Again the ball is thrown behind the LOS so it's legal to block downfield.
Nice 45 yard gain.
at USC vs Arizona
They run a great play action with the fake crack and go with the h back running a wheel off ISO action. Great design off the fake to the RB
Safety bites on the play action and the wr fakes the crack/find block and beats him vertically.
THE H back on the wheel after faking iso hold the corner back.
These are just some of the play action and rpo game you will see from Lincoln Riley. More to come!
