In the video below (originally from my new PAC-12 blog westcoastbreakdowns.com) I look at Jordan Duncan’s TD against the North Carolina Tarheels, the score that gave our California Golden Bears a 35-24 lead and the win. This play utilized a formation that Baldwin runs more than most other play callers: a Quads Empty set, with four WR’s on the same side of the formation.
I show how placing four WR’s to a side puts a tremendous amount of horizontal pressure on the defense’s coverage and forces them to make tough decisions about where to strengthen their coverage and where to leave it thin.
