3-1-7 That's... Interesting. I guess it works, so if I had the roster I might do that. And at least you only have 8 in the backfield. Some people choose 9.



haha, but 3-1-7 sounds good, need to run a test asap



please tell us how the result. I would try it in my next friendly game, but I don't have 7 defensive backs unfortunately.



Not sure, depending on Buckeyes tactics I could run the test on Monday, we want to play primary lines

I bet you that would stop the pass pretty well, but it would only take 1 or 2 carries for the running back to get loose and score.

That is weird, maybe when you have that many defensive backs, there isn't enough pass rush on the QB.

Wow, you managed to stop a really good offense, I might have to try that formation, but I might have to put some D linebackers at corner back.

Don't run a 3-1-7 against me. Two weeks without a passing game would be torture.

If Croverja would have ran more, he would have won easily...this was pure gambling

I don't think I'm going to until I get enough players to play that formation.
