I have been trying to track a number of different formations and presnap movements so far this year for the Texas offense.

Wanted to share some of my findings through eight games with you all.

**These are not 100% accurate, but as close as I can get them based off of game rewatches and box score reviews**

Yards Per Play by Formation

I wanted to add where each per play average would rank amongst the 136 teams in the country and their per play averages for reference.

On the Season:

• 11 Personnel: 5.51 yards per play ... Would rank 82/136 teams in 2025.
• 12 Personnel: 6.01 yards per play ... Would rank 46/136 teams in 2025.

Against Only Power 4 Teams:

• 11 Personnel: 5.44 yards per play ... Would rank 83/136 teams in 2025.
• 12 Personnel: 4.16 yards per play ... Would rank 135/136 teams in 2025.

 

Yards Per Presnap Movement 

On the Season:

• Presnap Motion: 6.04 yards per play
• No Presnap Motion: 5.68 yards per play

Against Only Power 4 Teams:

 

• Presnap Motion: 5.68 yards per play
• No Presnap Motion: 4.57 yards per play

 

– The Kentucky game really hurts a lot of these numbers.

Texas averaged 1.37 yards per play with no motion against Kentucky.

Let me know if there are any individual games y'all would like to see. 

I find this stuff interesting and hope some of yall do as well. 

135 out 136 tells you all that you need to know.  If you aren’t throwing to your TEs and they aren’t great blockers and you specialize in slow developing down field shots where the defense knows they will have a great chance to get home by blitzing it’s not surprising that the results are subpar.  

First season I can remember under sark where we have barely targeted the TE. I figured endries would’ve had a bigger role. 

We need to be in 11 personnel with motion

Me too. I thought that was a huge pick up for us. I wonder if it’s play call/design or merely the fact Arch hasn’t had much time to be able to find Endries that has hurt his production. 

@CJ Vogel I know Rod talks about this all the time but what are the stats when it is Bunch to motion.

I'd have to go back and start tracking it. Hasn't been top of mind for me.

I'll see if Rod has it.

Maybe list where the turnovers and sacks have come from if not too difficult. 

Three years ago, if you had told us that Manning and Sark would create a pedestrian offense at Texas, I think we would have all been in vehement disagreement.

I love numbers, but this year's group is so heckle/jeckle.  It would probably be interesting to add in a "by-quarter" layer.

This year's group tends to start off a bit timid gaining confidence as the contest evolves.  I bet the differences between Q1 and Q4 are staggering.
