Tuscola

This week's "Best-of-the-Best" features the Tuscola Warriors.  Nobody in Class 1A runs the spread offense better than Tuscola.  Consider the evidence: the Warriors have appeared in the state championship game five out of the last six years!  Here is a look at their four verticals pass play.  The concept is simple: send four deep threats against a Cover 3 pass defense.  The corners will cover their receivers in their thirds.  The player that is put in a real bind is the free safety.  He is forced to cover two deep threats up the hashes.  Notice that the QB will look off the middle-of-the field safety before hitting the opposite hash inside receiver with a perfect pass.
