Part of this has to do with how they space themselves. WRs are set literally sideline to sideline which stretches the back end of the defense. Offensive Lineman splits are really tight with a TE used as a H Back shrinking the box creating huge running lanes for backs. I read a stat a year ago which stated Baylor under Briles ran more plays toon than any other team in CFB. He's an old Flexbone Veer guy so you see a lot of concepts in his offense. Idk if they are still running this system though.

Thank you. High quality answer. You must be the adult tonight.

I'd imagine they're still running that. Why would they change it after so many years of running it so successfully?

Its amazing how much production that offense gets.
