Oklahoma Drill:
1. Defense – Biggs… Desir… Talkington
Offense – Ergenbright… Reemts… Bendele
Running back – Hall
8:20am -8:30am (10 minutes) Oklahoma Drill (See table 1 for set up)
Set up 6 pads, 3 on each side to create a lane for the drill
Assemble the QB and the running back on one end at the starting line
There will be three sets of offense defense match ups about 5 yards apart
down the lane
The QB hands off the ball to the running back and the running back stays
in the lane while trying to get past all three sets of offense defense match
ups
The defense is trying to tackle their match up partner in order to in turn be
able to catch the running back and tackle them
See teams to know your match up and round # you are a part of
The goal of this drill is to instill toughness and perseverance within
both the offense and the defense to either get through for the
touchdown or for the defense to stop the running back from getting
through
This is a fun game to play at the beginning of the practice to get
the team moral going and the motivation levels up before going in
to skill training
This drill pushes the objectives on the players before breaking
them down in individual drills
(Modification) make the lane smaller to push the offense to have
quicker feet and better cuts in order to get through to score
(modification) make the lane bigger to push the defense into
making the tackle and chasing the running back. It will also give
the running back more freedom to run if he is struggling to break
through
As a QB focus on accuracy in your hand off to hit the running back in step
to continue his stride
As a running back, take smaller steps when in a tight space in order to
have more accurate cuts
When running with the ball, keep the ball tight in between your
arm/armpit and your chest to make sure not to drop it
Table 1
8:30am - 8:40 am (10 minutes) Circle and Bubble (See table 2 for set up)
Set up different screen plays
Position a QB with a slot receiver and a wide receiver on the outside
Position a DB in-between the receivers in order to set the screen
Rotate sides in order to ensure X,Y, and Z are getting reps
The goal of this drill is to prepare our offense to simulate screen
plays
This drill will help prepare our wide receivers to get in the habit of
blocking for the slot receiver to run their route
Put different combinations of players to gain familiarity of each
player
(Modification) If struggling to make the screen, take away the DB
from the drill to take the pressure off the receiver and allow them
to focus on catching and running their route
(Modification) If players aren’t taking it seriously, initiate full
contact between DB and receiver to make it more game realistic
Table 2
8:40am – 8:50 am (10 minutes) Ball Handle (See table 3 for set up)
Assemble 10 yards apart passing lines for the QB to throw
Move distance in order to make it harder and push for more accuracy
The goal of this drill is for the QB’s to practice their grip on the
ball
The goal of this drill is also for the QB’s to work on their touch
and reaction when catching and throwing
Work on technique when releasing the ball
Focus on the ball until it reaches your hands
(Modification) if too easy, throw different types of balls to push
the QB to correct and problem solve as he would have to in a real
game
(Modification) change distance to push QB’s to work on accuracy
and strength behind their passes
(Modification) if too easy, have them pass to a moving target
instead of a standing target.
Keep your eye on the ball to ensure you catch the ball
See the ball all the way in to your hands
Focus on your grip to ensure you have total control of the ball
Follow through to get the most power behind your throw
8:50 am - 9:05 am (15 minutes) ROA/POA (See table 4 for set up)
Coach will call a route and the QB will organize the play with his
offense
The receivers will get into position and run the proper route while
the QB throws to them
There will be three receivers, the X,Y, and Z, and they will run
their route according to the play
The goal of this drill is to establish and get familiar
with the new plays that the offense will be running
The goal of this drill is also for QB to work on his
accuracy of his passes and his footwork stepping
back to create separation
The other goal of this drill is for the receivers to
work on their footwork and their break from the
defenders
This drill won’t have actual defenders, but it is a
simulation for the receivers to understand their
positioning and where they need to be to receive the
ball
This drill stresses the importance of learning the
new plays
(Modification) Add defenders to apply more
pressure to the offense to make it more game like
(Modification) add pressure to the QB to ensure he
works on his step back for better visualization
Receivers focus on quick feet when breaking out of their route to
receive the ball
This will fake out the defender and allow you to find a pocket to
get the ball with less pressure
Keep shoulders low to ensure speed and efficiency
Don’t look at where you are running the route or else it will give it
away to the opponent
9:45 am – 10:00 am ( 15 minutes) Team 1 scrimmage (See table 8 for set up)
Assemble an 11 on 11 scrimmage on the field
Team 1 which are the starters play against each other with no
tackling just easy two hand touch
The goal of this drill is to put it all together with the starters
to get a better idea of what you need to work on with the
best players on the field
The goal of this drill is to apply footwork, new
plays/routes, and high pressure in a game like situation
This drill will test the knowledge and abilities of all
positions to see if what they have been working on as set in
with them
(Modification) For more pressure and quick decision
making add the tackling aspect back into the game
As a QB, mix up the plays by running the ball and passing in order
to be unpredictable
Create separation from the line to ensure you will have time to
make a quick decision in case your offense isn’t in proper position
Focus on quick feet to be quick off the break and get away from
your defender
10:05- 10:20 am (15 minutes) Team 2 scrimmage(See table 9 for set up)
