Playcalling in the Triple Option is pretty basic.
1- Run Triple Option and if you get 4+ yards run Triple Option again.
If the Triple is working, keep running it–and to the same side.
2- If you don’t get 4+ yards on Triple Option with a give read, get the ball outside with Rocket or Zone Option.
Obviously, the defense is trying to box you inside, so get the ball outside.
3- If you don’t get 4+ yards on Triple Option with a pull read, throw Triple Pass.
When the defense makes you pull the ball, the Safety and Corner have to get on the Quarterback/Pitch by sacrificing pass coverage for run support–thus you throw the ball.
You worked hard all week–now it’s time to win. Call the Triple Option Football Academy at 570.332.0265.
