Hi Guys,
We are playing a team that is bigger and faster than us.
They are a multiple spread I. QB is a tall fast kid, he can throw OK but more of a runner. Two quick RB's. Huge oline. They like to run it down your throat and then QB option / keep outside. They will run Power I / Slot I and then 4 or 5 wide gun.
On D they are a 44 cover 1 with heavy pressure and some press coverage. Their D.Line outmatches us by 4 inches and 40 pounds at a few spots. I think we can pass on them if we have time...
We are a 44 Cover 3 and a I / ace Zone multiple. We can throw and pass well.
Any thoughts?

Without really knowing much about your team of the team you are playing it is hard for me to make specific recomendations.
Here are some random thoughts: 1. Do what you do, and do it well.
2. Emphasize the fundamentals. Ball security, finish blocks on offense. Alignment, assignment, hit & shed, tackling.
3. Try and force some turnovers. You say bad weather may be in the works for your game. Make sure the kids try and strip the ball.
4. Emphasize the DL staying low and not getting blown back.
5. Make them execute, don't give up the big play. Make them march it in the bad weather.
These by no means are doctrine. I'm sure there are some other good ideas out there.
Good luck.

Limit their # of offensive possessions and total # of offensive snaps.
How do you do that? Limit your # of offensive possessions and offensive snaps.
How do you limit your # of offensive possessions?
By snapping the ball with 1 second remaining on the play clock (when your ahead or behind), running the ball, staying in bounds, getting off the ground very slowly, and limiting your number of incomplete passes that stop the clock you shorten the game and limit both team's total possessions.
In an average game each team gets between 9-11 possessions. If you can limit the possessions to between 6-8 possessions you force the other to to capitalize a higher percentage of the time increasing the margain of error and somewhat evening the odds.
So if "superior" team scores TD's on 4 of their seven drives, they will score between 24 and 32 points.
If "inferior" team can make every possesion count then they have the opportunity to make it a close game by "stalling".
On the other hand if "superior" team gets 10-plus possessions and 55-plus offensive snaps then "inferior" team doesn't stand much of a chance.

Quick hitch passes to the Wr's
This will create plenty of one on ones.
