This offseason I spoke a lot about this offense is extremely “integrative.” This is in contrast to many college offenses now which have become more a collection of different plays that they like. Instead, Jeff Grimes has installed a scheme at Baylor where all of the plays work off one another—there are built in counterpunches and theoretical answers to whatever the defense is doing.
Against Texas this past Saturday, Baylor was able to get a lot going offensively really just sticking with base run game that has all been installed since this Spring. The basic play that even lay-fans have heard of is “wide zone,” Baylor’s staple running play.
