Two Headed Beast

Unread post by Appstate88 » Sat Nov 19, 2016 7:05 pm

What do you think about seeing both Cox and Moore lined up in the backfield? I think it presents a difficult matchup for opposing defenses and gives Lamb lots of options. The pair gained nearly 300 yards today. Two Headed Beast :twisted: :evil: mode! Go Apps! Go ULL! :D

Loved loved loved the two back sets with the Lamb option. Been saying for a few weeks we aren't utilizing Lamb's running ability.

YES! The two back set with a TE in the slot gave ULM fits all day long.

I'm a fan as well... adds another dimension to the offensive scheme. Was also glad to see Burns get a TD on Senior Day.

It might have been nice to have pulled this out last week.

Even better, we were running our take of Georgia Southern's lost offense to perfection.

Yes it was great to see. Wonder why we didn't see it last week. It is very difficult to defend. Great to see Marcus and Jalin and Taylor get off. Offensive line played well.

+1 - I hope we see more of this for the rest of this season and beyond. We have studs at the RB position so let's get as many as we can on the field!

It's about time we went to this! Been hoping to see it for several years. Reminds me of Armanti and Kevin in the backfield ripping defenses apart.

Helped that we really healthy in those positions finally. I think we would have seen it more had Marcus come back sooner.

It reminded me of Armanti Richardson and Moore. That was a great combination. I have asked several times why we got away from two back sets. It keeps the defenses guessing.

After 2007, I don't think we had 2 RB's that would make it work. Defenses have to respect both Cox and Moore with what they can do.

I do not recall the 2nd back when we ran a double back set with Armanti and K Rich. I think whoever it was, was just a blocking back.

This year, with Lamb, Cox, & Moore, it is actually much more high powered than back in 2007.
