Football season isn’t quite here yet, but football practice is. In the process of previewing the 2019 LSU team, plus the various opponents, we’re going to be using a lot of X&O football jargon. And yeah, a lot of it has been explained in the past, but quite frankly, after 10 years of writing here at ATVS, its hard to avoid self-plagiarization. Especially with schemes and opponents that have been so static over this time, like Gus Malzahn, Dan Mullen and Nick Saban (and his various cronies).
So with that in mind, I thought a glossary of some of the more common football terms that you’ll see around here in the coming months might come in handy.
