We’ve finished our six-part series on the Drinkwitz offense, and I thought it might be worthwhile to see how the elements we identified came together in Appalachian State’s New Orleans Bowl win over UAB.
Of course Coach Drinkwitz has been busy preparing his Mizzou Tigers for 2020 and beyond, and didn’t coach the Mountaineers in The Big Easy. It is clear, however, that the App State offense on display in New Orleans was a continuation of Drink’s own attack. All the hallmarks we looked at in the series were there: Inside Zone, heavy doses of Outside Zone, Coach Drink’s favored Quick and Dropback pass concepts, and his Screen game.
