Did Utah show anything differently vs. Navy in their spread option offense last nite? Any new runs, passes or gadget plays that stood out?

They ran a Rocket screen hook and ladder type play that didn't gain yards but it was a very nice play. The screen receiver pitched it too quickly.

I didn't feel that they had set it up well enough to run it when they did. If they had run the screen a couple of times and gained some good yards so the defense would have bitten on the screen, the lateral would have gone for a huge play. |

Yeah, very well run play, but as another coach said, the screen man needed to take another step or two to get the defense flowing to him before pitching. |

We ran the Rocket screen very well this year.. Probably ran it around 30 times this season.. we put in a lateral to our backside slot receiver who came down the line.. but never got good enough at it in practice for me to run it in a game.. but the possibility of it being great was sure there..

Does anyone have a diagram of it or care to share how they run it?

It was similar to the one they ran in their bowl game when Urban Meyer was the HC.
Gun with Twins or Trips left and the back offset left. #2 Caught a quick hitch to look like a screen and the back was swinging behind him for the pitch. Navy was well disciplined (shocking!) and snuffed it out.

Here's a link to the play. They also used it last season in their bowl game against Tulsa.
