BENTON — A special Fairfield school board meeting "work session" was held in the junior-senior high school cafeteria Thursday evening to show the community renderings of the plans for $30
UFR GLOSSARY is here. FORMATION NOTES: Iowa spent most of the game in 12 personnel. They often went with an empty look with a TE and two WRs bunched outside that I called it Empty 3x2 Bunch. The other weird formation from Empty had a pair of tight ends stacked a few yards wide of the box. They ran this a lot when they were in comeback mode late. I called it Empty Demi TEs. They also had this heavy formation with a guy halfway between FB and TE than I called I-Heavy H. Also I've shortened "Trips 2TE Bunch" to TTEB. SUBSTITUTION NOTES: Line favored the starters—Moore, Stewart, G...
FIRST OFF: DUNNO. Give or take Matt Hibner, who stopped playing in order to maintain a redshirt and transfer somewhere next year, Michigan is the last P5 team without someone in the transfer portal. This obviously isn't going to last, but I mention it because that fact combined with the peak COVID-shirt year means just about anyone could come back, or leave, for 2024. Michigan only definitively loses six contributors: Cornelius Johnson, Cam Goode, Mike Barrett, Mike Sainristil, Josh Wallace, and James Turner. I'm going to wave a wand and assert that the following players will not be ...
FORMATION NOTES: Though Nebraska was touted as a 3-3-5 coming in, in this game they were highly multiple. I had them in some variety of a 4-3 on a majority of plays, mostly under-shifted with a five man line. Note the unusual depth of the linebackers, generally around five yards instead of three. Nebraska played with light boxes a fair bit and would spin down a safety late. Michigan didn't do anything unusual. SUBSTITUTION NOTES: Henderson got his first start at LT, kicking Barnhart to RT. When Tuttle Time started Michigan put El-Hadi at LG and Trente Jones at RT, then gradually replaced ...
FORMATION NOTES: UNLV was highly multiple, with a slight tendency towards running the 404 tite stuff mentioned last week. Note the safety at 15 yards; UNLV was less aggressive than ECU, also less weird. UNLV also ran some stack fronts and regular old 4-3. They rushed their three down linemen a bunch; the eighth guy in coverage did not help. SUBSTITUTION NOTES: OL and QB the same as last week. Michigan intended to give Jack Tuttle most of the fourth quarter but he got a cheap shot on his first play so Warren got the rest of that drive and then Jayden Denegal got in. At TE, Loveland and Barner b...
