The Triple Option in 2014—Five Things We’ve Learned from Navy, Georgia Tech, and Triple Option Football Academy Clients/Research So Far
1- Double Flex is rapidly increasing in popularity.
The ability to pin and pull on the Rocket Toss with Rocket Blast is a total game changer.
2- Reverse Ace on the 0-technique is the way to go.
Instead of the Center veering past the o and delivering the o to the Backside Guard, the Center and Backside Guard are double teaming the 0 when the Playside Guard is uncovered on Triple.
3- On Triple–Double the Action Key—Playside Veers and Backside Scoops.
Follow this rule for Triple and Midline Triple Option.
