Rpo Offense. The RPO is a simple concept that creates complex problems for the defense. In almost every offense across college football you can find some version of the run-pass option RPO.
That decision is left up to the quarterback and can be made either pre- or post-snap. Assuming that was a harbinger of the offense going forward though wouldve been short-sighted. The RPO is a simple concept that creates complex problems for the defense.
The overlap player in a defense often finds himself in a bind as he can be seeing run blocks in front of him with a passing concept tagged to the run.
If the linebacker commits to the run and vacates his zoneman the quarterback will then throw it. This all depends on what the defender covering our slot receiver 3 does. The RPO is a way to take the onus off of the play-caller to be in the correct play and turn the quarterback into a point guard where he has the different options. They think RPO is all we do.
