If a Tree Falls in Rice Eccles Stadium - Utah vs. Stanford 10/7/17

[SoCalPat]

I remember a couple of interviews with Taylor where he said he wanted the TE to be able to line up in the backfield, on the end of the line or split out. I haven’t payed attention to the formations enough, but I imagine it’s no happening like he described it much.

I still wonder how much the injuries to both our TE’s affected things. They basically missed all of call camp.

I would say we have 2-3 plays per game in which we have a TE in the backfield, minimum. I can't remember one that didn't come in short-yardage or goal-to-go.

That said, when your base offense isn't based on a heavy formation, it's tough to go to one when you need it. Meanwhile, Stanford rolls out their 3 TE sets in their sleep.
