Hogs taking shot at old school formation threatens SEC as linebackers unprepared physically, mentally
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – When Bobby Petrino came screaming into Fayetteville on what Razorbacks fans mentally envision as the world's loudest Harley, the brash image they generated in their heads was that of a general showing up for battle prepared to launch the world's greatest air assault.
Once again, Petrino has explored ways to create defensive disadvantages while also assessing potential weaknesses and strengths within the Hogs' roster and arrived at another potential game-changing decision. He and Pittman are going to dust off the old Power I formation and make it new again. The next thing it does is turn the Razorbacks into a unique opponent. For anyone who played high school football in the last two decades of the 20th century, the idea of a Power I formation is about as vanilla as it gets.
Suddenly, linebackers are asked to prepare to face a lead blocker who outweighs them by 20-30 pounds coming at them with a full head of steam while a 235-pound running back hits the hole at full speed right behind him with little to no previous experience for such a thing and essentially less than a week to prepare for it. The 40+ crowd thinks nothing of it because over a decade of facing a Power I formations from pee-wee football through high school made it easier and instinctive.
