Figure as we lead up to kickoff we get people acclimated with Kirk's Offense so you have an idea of what to expect. It's a very efficient take what the defense gives you style offense where the 5 most frequently run base plays are as follows:

Cross:
Inside Zone:
Outside Zone:
Split Zone:
Glance:

^^ Those are the basics of each concept

Now onto Minny's first big ten game of 2022 vs Michigan State. Minny won 34-7 and the offense put up the following stats:

Total Plays: 74
Passing: 23/26 for 268 yards 3TD 0INT
Rushing: 48 attempts for 240 yards and 1TD



Play Breakdown for the first 3 quarters (it was 31-0 after 3 quarters and minny basically sat on the ball in the 4th):

Outside Zone: 16
Inside Zone: 10
Cross: 10 (they run different variations of this)
Glance: 7
Split Zone: 5
Hitches/Variation of China type concept: 3
10 yard out route: 2
Glance and Go (casino): 1
TE Stick: 1
Fade: 1 (Max protection For TD while on MSU's 25)
Z Tunnel Screen: 1
Bubble: 1
Shallow Cross: 1
Deep 14 back to 12 Out Route (honestly looks like vertical choice to me as #2 is clearly just targeting the safety to occupy him): 1
Mesh Rail: 1
Max Protection Post Corner: 1
