This is my completely amateur attempt to take a closer look at the Virginia Tech passing game against Bowling Green. In advance, let me say that I in no way, shape or form am any kind of an expert on the X's and O's of football. I have a basic understanding, at least I like to think so. However, I'm not a football coach, and moreover, I don't know the Virginia Tech offense. I don't know for sure what routes Tech's receivers are supposed to run against certain coverages, and I don't know exactly how much freedom they have to change their routes on the fly.
That never stopped me before, however, and I think the passing game is interesting, so I decided to break down every passing play of the Bowling Green game, possession by possession. This is a long article, and it includes a lot of videos, so get ready.
