Wasn't the biggest fan of Trinity's wild-cat plays within the 5, but I appreciate Urban testing out some new play sets for the playoffs. Trinity's inside-the-ten offense has not been great this year, so at least coaching staff is trying to get creative.

Sloppy penalties from defense. Got to cut that junk out before playoffs.

Recommend taking a look at Collin Bishop's (TU QB #15) HUDL page from high school.  He was phenomenal running the wildcat.  Using him in this fashion reminds me of how Florida initially used Tim Tebow to give them that option in the red zone.

Yea he's pretty stout and reminded me of Tebow as well.... Has Played some safety too. Very physical QB.

Their QB room had a good afternoon, obviously a testament to the OL for giving them protection and the WRs for securing completions:

Horn 23/30
Back 6/8
Bishop 4/5
Vaske 2/3

Would hate to pick who has the strongest arm. They were threading darts all over the field.

Trinity might have broken a couple of single-game school records today for team total offense (710) and team passing offense (560).  And tied the Team Passing TD mark of 7.   The most I can find from the SCAC era are 701 yards in total offense against Redlands in 2004 and 510 passing yards against Gustavus in 2001.

Really enjoying the Rhodes - Hendrix game.  Lots of offense and some impressive catches.

29 - 20 Hendrix just before half.

I'll add that the Hendrix announcers are super!  Well informed, smooth delivery and the main announcer has a great voice.

According to the TU game writeup, both the total and passing yardages were indeed all-time records.

What a game! Would have liked to see them kick the extra point to keep it going. There's been a lot of close games in SAA this year

To be clear, I very much appreciated the creativity and trying new things. Bishop should be able to get that done most of the time. What I didn't like was them running it back to back. I've noticed that on many inside the 5 sets, Trinity has resorted to running a similar play again and again on back to back plays, usually with very little success. I know wildcat is a little different because of the advantage it provides, so maybe running it back to back shouldn't irk me the same way I've seen them do other back to back goal line plays.

I agree.  I think at this point in a game well in-hand, they were using the opportunity to work on some things.  One thing Trinity does extremely well is play deep into their bench.  They don't run up scores or stats.  This philosophy is the main reason I view point differential to be a statistic of limited use.

I'm just ready for all those guys to graduate and move on already.......

Truly an enjoyable game.  Couldn't get any closer even in the stats.  It's games like that one that remind me why the players are out there giving it their all even if they are not chasing the playoffs.  Hats off to both teams!

Man!  Those are some truly superb photos!  Is Ryan Merrifield really smiling at the guys tackling him?  Sure looks like it.  The catch by Caleb Crawford falling backwards is ridiculous.  Tucker Horn looking menacing throwing into the camera.

Thanks so much for sharing these!

Thanks! I love getting to shoot football games from field level. I've been shooting from the stands off and on for several years now. Doing this class has gotten me really wanting to upgrade gear again... I guess I should start making money if I decide that...

What gear did you use for these?  Were they touched up at all?  They are all fantastic!   I've shot my soccer daughter a bunch but can't seem to get the "wow" photos.  I hope you'll continue to shoot and share!  Thanks again.
