End zone

After Stanford scored on their first drive with a 75 yard run by McCaffrey, Iowa’s defensive mentality became overly reactive—loosing the poise of a well established zone defense. Either Kevin Hogan, Stanford’s quarterback, or Stanford’s offensive play coordinator was able to read Iowa’s defense and prescribe a play that best leveraged Stanford’s players and Iowa’s relative perception of individual players as threats in such a way that it lead to a touchdown. Leading up to the specific play, McCaffrey had run a series of successful plays enabling Stanford to have position within Iowa’s red zone. Although the game was only six minutes in, McCaffrey had already ran for 140 yards; he had established himself as a threat to Iowa’s defense that couldn’t be taken lightly. Knowing Iowa’s zone defense was over reactive to McCaffrey’s moves, Stanford’s play callers decided to have Hogan offer a fake handoff to McCaffrey. As McCaffrey cut to the right corner of the end zone, all but one of Iowa’s defensive players committed to stopping him without hesitation. As Hogan peeled out from the fake handoff towards the left corner of the end zone he was left in a one on one open field situation with Iowa’s safety. Seemingly with ease, Hogan ran into the end zone. In addition to it being a brilliant tactical move, Stanford executed the play flawlessly—it was both tactics and their execution that led to the play’s…

Speedball is a game we played by combining, three sports soccer, football, and basketball. The game starts by putting the ball on the middle of the football field. Both teams have to be in position on their own side of the football field or with the position of soccer ball The ball has to be kicked forward to start the game. Speedball is played by the position of the ball whether the ball is on the ground or a ball is in the air. When the ball is on the ground, it can only be played like a…

At first, It was my team and I just sitting in our little locker room. We were banging on the lockers as hard our hands could handle. Then the music started playing. “BOOM! HERE COMES THE BOOM, I DON’T REALLY WANT IT NOW.” Then, we sprinted out of the locker rooms at full speed. The team was so intimidated by our appearance. We were screaming and yelling chants to get our team and the crowd fired up. Then, it was kickoff time. My buddy Shawn got the ball on kickoff and ran it back to the 50…

resemble rugby instead of football where downed players would be wrestled for control of the ball. Rules in activity system also in some cases provide fairness and safety. Consider a runner in football who has made it to the end zone for a touchdown. Without the dead ball rule the play would still be active and we would be open to player tackling him with a twenty yard head start, this would be a very dangerous situation and would create inherent risk to runners who scored touchdowns. The word…

started walking and I was really getting nervous. I knew I was going to play a lot of the game because one of our players was sick. Feeling confident, we stepped onto the field. The turf was much different than I expected. It had rubber on it. It felt really soft and felt like you could run 10 times faster. The first thing we do before a game is warm up. I was the long snapper for our team, so first I was long snapping to my punter. I already noticed it was much easier to do movements on the…

PE Coursework Strengths The sport I have chosen is football. One of my main strengths (components of fitness) in football is my speed. The definition of speed is the ability to move quickly across the ground or moving limbs rapidly to grab or throw. In football, you use your speed for e.g; When you’re attacking and you are dribbling past a defender, you can use bursts of speed to blow past him. This means I get closer to the goal and have a better chance of scoring for me and my team. Also,…

Creeping up to the line of scrimmage, as a cornerback, my mind was trying to figure out what the quarterback was going to do with the ball. I got into a defensive stance, into a mid squat, and I was on the balls of my feet with my left leg in front and my right leg right behind my left. My arms were in running form, with my right arm in front. I was waiting for the ball to be snapped. HIKE! The ball was snapped from the center to the quarterback. In front of me were the offensive linemen with…

We all know that we live in a world, where opportunities are never given, but instead they are taken. The bucs have been on the wrong end of success this season. A team that was once labeled the dark horse of the NFC, Quickly became the laughing stock of the NFL. At least the browns are expected to be losers. The 49ers were expected to have setbacks. The buccaneers had expectations as well, they were expected to turn heads, not have them turn away. At a dismal record of 2-6, our starting…
