I know I’ve shared several of these type of articles already, but this is a great write up on the Frost offense and what we can expect. I think it is important that we all understand what we are trying to do offensively and get on board with it.
Frost Offense
- Thread starter Headcard
- Start date
It's not. However it is fairly similar to what to Rich Rod was trying to achieve at Michigan from my understanding.

Spread option which is the same offense Urban Meyer is running, Rich Rod runs, etc. Rich Rod IMO wasn't a great coach but stumbled on to something great and it put him on the map.

I'll be curious to see what they can do with the Nebraska defensive roster compared to what they had going at UCF.
I can't wait to see the new offense, last year's offense was boring to watch
Love watching pulling linemen to sell play action. Or multiple linemen pulling on sweeps, etc.
It's a very interesting offense to say the least.

I see almost both guards pull to the outside on those run plays.. leaving a center inside to make sure no push is given. I like the idea of getting to the edge with 2 extra blockers but man look at the last play when that center gets pushed into the backfield... that worries me... i am however excited to see how our current players fit this scheme.. tyjon..jd... stan.. should be good rbs are my question mark and qb obviously.. i think the writer is right though 2nd year will be huge jumps.. but how scared will defenses be trying to stop that offebse in the future??
Ditto!
Took me over an hour to get through it with the other things going on in the house today, but I love reading these types of things and man, it gets me excited for our future offense.
It's going to be so fun to watch. Gonna have to make sure not to spend too much time in the bathroom during commercials so ya don't miss quick plays and TDs!
Perhaps we can bring all the UCF players to Lincoln. While we’re at it, can we just cut to the chase, and move Nebraska to Orlando? I might actually go visit my parents then. Two-fer.
They pull with many different combos and the play you're referring to the center and the tackle were pulling, the guard was the one that got beat there. Read an article awhile back that said they'll pull the entire line in a matter of a few plays and on passing plays. Very simple offense yet very diverse and tough to stop.
Why would we want UCF's defensive roster? I'd take a few of their players but I would rather have the Nebraska roster to work with over UCF's.
Agree with you. Just don’t want to read any more about how they are soft or don’t want to play. Fortunately, I don’t think that will be a problem under Frost.
UCFs defense was littered with freshman and soph in the secondary, they got exposed. Some good DT. No rush at DE. One good LB. I would say their defense was never going to set the world on fire, based on personnel. So lighten up a little here.
The transition is going to take time. Frost seems to be begging for speed at the skill positions this recruiting cycle, and plugging holes on defense. To expect a quick turnaround, in his scheme, next year is unrealistic. Just admire and watch the progress. It's fun monitoring a Program on the rise from the ashes, led by a great new HC.

Note how Tech's D ran out of gas by the fourth quarter?
Auburn won't. Will be more fascinating to see how UCF deals with Auburn's defense after they have a month off and can get back to work, healthy.
Personally, I think Auburn's front 4 is going to bury UCF. That's how you beat a spread. Set the edge and get to the QB with 4, which leaves safety help out wide while your Cbs play up on the WR. Milton won't have enough time to get the ball out. Should be an Auburn rout...
No offense, but weren’t you the poster guaranteeing Frosty wasn’t coming back to Nebraska?
My history with Frost on this board. Should have hired him 3 years ago (the Riley hire sucked). Thought Frost would take another job. 1 and 1.
If they want to bring it, they will pound UCF, but I'm skeptical of which Auburn shows up. Just don't see them being enthused at all for this game.
I'd be more concerned about Auburns offense running right over UCF's D. USF and Memphis were dragging UCF defenders up and down the field, Auburn will multiply that..
Yep, If UCF wins it will still look good for them and Frost. I just don't see Auburn, a team so close to making the playoffs giving a crap about a means nothing bowl game against UCF.
Right. Auburn will score in bunches, for sure.
Here is a quick article highlighting what Frost will face. Note the emphasis on 4 men to the QB. Leaves plenty of help in coverage. In the buzzsaw that is the SEC, Auburn got to the SEC Title game and simply ran out of gas after playing the #1 team in the country (or 2 teams that had been #1 this year) 3 weeks in a row...

Killens and Frost have made enough comments to get the Tigers amped up for the game, that much I can guarantee. Plus, Auburn should have been in The Playoffs. Chip on their shoulder. Lay the points...
