Wishbone



The Wishbone formation is an option running formation that was very popular in the 70s and the 80s. It was created from the T formation and can throw a lot of defenses off. You can do so much from this formation. Its used for a lot of hand offs and crazy fakes. It consists of three running backs: a fullback lined up directly behind the quarterback, and the two halfbacks lined up right behind the fullback. Sometimes teams run this with two tight ends which is another threat they have to get down field. But colleges used this to mostly run the ball.
