Blair Hubbard - Rocket Sweep - Fastest Perimeter Play in Football

by IHSFCA Illinois High School Football Coaches Association

Description

Blair Hubbard’s Gun-T Rocket Sweep is quickly becoming a popular offense because it produces wins! The base play, the Rocket Sweep, involves the quarterback taking a snap from the center, faking a handoff to the running back, and then quickly tossing the ball to a wide receiver who is running in motion across the field. The wide receiver catches the ball and quickly turns upfield, using his speed and agility to evade defenders and gain yardage.

What makes the Gun-T Rocket Sweep so effective is its deceptive nature. The fake handoff to the running back draws the attention of the defense, creating an opening for the wide receiver to receive the ball and make a play. Additionally, the use of motion by the wide receiver can help to confuse the defense and create mismatches.

Today, the Gun-T Rocket Sweep can be an effective play, especially at the high school and college levels. It requires precise execution and a high level of athleticism from the players involved, but when executed correctly, it can be a game-changing play that can turn the tide of a game.
