Guess the first offensive play of TU's 15-16 Season! (And Monty's HC Career)

[astonmartin708]

It seems like, since rivals' transition to the new forum format, these boards have been pretty dull compared to the past. So, to break the monotony...

I'm guessing it will be a deep pass... possibly a wheel route of some sort that puts the opposing team on their heels and sets a precedent for the season.

 

[TU 1978]

It will be 100% more creative than what we've seen the past couple of years.

So you're saying that it won't be run up the middle, run up the middle, run up the middle, kick?

You mean 'run up the middle, run up the middle, incomplete slant / comeback, punt'

 

[Larry Lewis]

Fake slant to Lucas, long pass to Keyarris.

 

[dvctulsa]

Fake slant to Lucas, long pass to Keyarris.

Quarterback keeper aka Steve Gage for 78 yard TD. The opposing team goes into a state of shock and puts 8 in the box for the rest of the game. Could happen.

 

[mcane]

Reverse fly sweep homage to the ND win

 

[TU_BLA]

It's going down the field...we won't be seeing a ton of 3 runs up the middle and a cloud of crushed tire and sand this year. If they hold true to the Spring game, they'll look for something mid-range, 10-12 yards and throw deep on the emergency route.

 

[TUcandoit]

Everyone knows he will throw it, so I am going with the run up the middle.

The first play will be a draw play.

 

[jesterondirt]

it'll be a read option, run right up the middle for about 2 yards.

+1 ................ the Coach Monty passing tree has an underneath route and a deep route on every play, get ready for some long toss!

This was my second choice. I watched some of his 'behind the scenes' Baylor practice tape, and he certainly puts a lot of emphasis on building from the transition point of the QB / RB exchange during a read option. I wouldn't be surprised to see Dane Rush for a couple hundred yards this season. I also think we'll have a back who goes +1000

 

[TU_Landman]

Monty calls a run up the middle for his first play, kicking up every TU fans PTSD from last season.
Now play number 2 he decides to throw it deep for a score.

That's because the majority of discussion has been in Hurricane Alley...which is generally typical during the summer.

 

[Rippin]

A bomb to Lucas.

 

[aTUfan]

a pass to Bishop Louie.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

I'll predict a quick pass out to a WR, behind the line of scrimmage. Safe first pass for Dane to get things started

 

[madlew]

Bootleg pass to Garrett deep. TD.

 

[sonofbird]

I guarantee it'll either be a kickoff or a kickoff reception. Money!!

 

[HuffyCane]

Mark me down as a QB zone read hand off to the RB who dives the A gap for 3 yards.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Pass from Johnson to Johnson for a TD!!!!


Sorry I was watching highlights from the '08 season.

Dane pass to Brewer out of the backfield for a 7 yard gain.

 

[seniorgolfer]

The first play will be a draw play.

That was going to be my answer....I remember the '64 game against Okie St., which
we eventually won 63-14 (or some such), the first play was a draw that went for
about 25 yds.....

Will be interesting to see Evans playing with a full deck of offensive assets, including
aggressive play calling......Should be fun to watch.....

nailed it

Yep. Jester and I win the prize

Nailed it as well!
