Well it is a vareation of the Wing T but i guess that if you get right down to it just about everything is some type of vareation of something else.

If you want to get right down to it The Formation that Burton runs is the "Flex Bone"

i would love to see haysi take norton, but don't know if it can happen. clintwood over TW cause i'ma be there. as for the others i could care less.

Counts they have multiple sets. Like I said they also come out in some shotgun sets. The put the receivers in motion at times and pitch or fake pitch to them. If you're on Clintwood's D just make sure you know where #4 Zach Hensley is at all times. He lines up at RB mostly but can line up at other places from time to time. I believe he was 3rd or 4th in the 100 Meters last year in track so he's got a little bit of speed.

Anything can happen but IMHO Burton should be the heavey favorit going into the game.

Not sure if field condations will play a part in this one given that the wet field at Clintwood was given as a major reason for Burtons only loss and it is looking like the field at Burton for this Friday will have been hit by 4 stright days of rain

A true Wing-T will have a FB, HB, and WB. Double wings can be called various things, most commonly Flex-bone, A-set, etc etc.

Delaware Wing Tee?

Yep the Blue Hens are a Wing T team that use the Flex Bone aka double wing as there "speed package" it is my understanding that they got this from Cumburland collages use of the formation

[1inStripes]

You are correct Counts. Cumberland was the first team IMO to turn the wing-T into a variation the JET offense Burton runs now by sending the WB in motion, and taking handoffs right at the snap. We tinkered with it in 96 by using it like Cumberland. Man that was tough to snap and make a direct handoff.

TW to me looks like an I with the flanker moved into the slot instead of being out wide.
