re: Georgia hopes added emphasis on red zone offense will help recent struggles

I know what her point was but you don’t run a spread offense with 12 personnel.

This time last year, it was 11 personnel (one back, one tight end) groupings that were all the rage. Coaches around the country were mimicking the success of what Ohio State and Oklahoma were doing with H-back off-the-ball alignment. By moving him both pre-snap and post-snap, they get a numbers advantage on the defense. Heading into the 2018 season, offensive coordinators are packaging that H with another tight end to create more 12 personnel groupings. And these formation packages are not only being used inside the red zone. We’ve found they are staying on the field longer. According to our research, coaches used 12 personnel groupings on 42% of snaps last season. And we expect that number to increase heading into the 2018 season.
