Goal Line Playbooks?

[ltlgas321]

Who has the best (most unique) goal line formation and plays?

[th3 last tiger]

VT,PSU,TCU, Miss State, and Air Force

And Florida, if memory serves (probably the same as Miss State).

Didn't Florida State have one? I could be mistaking them with VT though. Yeah it's probably VT, I sold NCAA 11 otherwise I'de go look and find out for sure...

Can I ask what's unique about each Goalline PB listed? I know I can look at them tomorrow, but street date for me is when I get off work, and 24 hours is a long time.

Instead of the normal Goalline formations certain schools have special formations that are different. When you choose a custom playbook you start by choosing which school's base playbook you want. Basically if you want these special Goallines these are the schools that us them.

As for how they are different here is an example. VT's looks like this.


Goal Line Power I is similar to the Maryland I in that it uses two fullbacks and halfback who are all aligned in the backfield. The difference between the two formations is one of the fullbacks is aligned in a offset position (#27). Team playbooks that include this formation: Georgia, Penn State, TCU, and Virginia Tech.

Thanks cipher. I knew the 'Multiple' Playbook in 11 had a Normal Goalline, and had a few Maryland I plays inside that. I'm assuming Jumbo Z is a Singleback look for the Run n Shoot teams and the Heavy is just an extra OLineman at TE. The only other two question marks I had were for Power I and H Tight.

So from my quick look over there's only four different goalline formations:

1. Normal - Most Teams
   
   
2. Power I - Teams like Virginia Tech, Georgia, TCU and Penn State.
   
   
   
3. Heavy (Maryland I) - Air Force has it as their base goalline formation but teams like Michigan State have it in their default playbook as a separate formation.
   
   
   
4. Tight (Wishbone) - Teams like Mississippi State run this by default. Wishbone style with Split Double Halfbacks.
