Building off of my post from earlier this week, I’m taking a look at another successful play from Oklahoma State’s 2017 matchup with the Pittsburgh Panthers. As a reminder, I’ll be going back through the 2017 season and breaking down interesting plays from that season.
For today’s play, I’m going to touch on a run-pass option (RPO) which led to an OSU touchdown against Pitt. This play uses a similar running concept to what was utilized in yesterday’s Jet Bash GT Counter post. See the diagram below for OSU’s Counter RPO.
You’ll also see this type of play referred to as a “Counter Trey RPO“, and Ted Nguyen of The Athletic refers to it as “Counter Dagger RPO.
