Army and Air Force play each other this Saturday. They have combined to run 996 plays in 15 games. The following are the concepts they have COMBINED to run the most:
1. Zone Dive (all variations)- run 215 times, is 22% of their combined offense, and this concept is run 14 times/game.
2. Zone Option (all variations)- run 178 times, is 18% of their combined offense, and this concept is run 12 times/game.
3. Triple Option (all variations)- run 177 times, is 18% of their combined offense, and this concept is run 12 times/game.
These three concepts have dominated the FBS Flexbone Triple Option landscape the last six seasons. The only variations are that both academies are running more Zone Kick and more Midline Triple Option this year than in years past.
Both academies have combined to run Trap 4% of the time and 3 times/game. This is the #4 combined concept in their offenses.
