Auburn Tigers Spring Passing Game (2005) - Al Borges
Al Borges is an American football coach who has served as an offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for several college football teams, including Auburn University, Cal, and Michigan. He is known for his quarterback development skills and his innovative offensive schemes.
Borges began his coaching career as a high school coach in California. He then moved on to the college ranks, where he served as an assistant coach at several different schools, including California State University, Chico, Diablo Valley College, and the University of Washington.
In 1997, Borges was hired as the offensive coordinator at Auburn University. He helped to lead the Tigers to a 13-0 record and a national championship in 2004.
The 2005 Auburn Tigers football team was a team that was led by a strong defense and a balanced offense. The team finished the season with a record of 9โ3 and they were invited to the Capital One Bowl, where they defeated the Wisconsin Badgers, 13โ7.
Al Borges used a spread offense with the 2005 Auburn Tigers football team. The spread offense is a type of offense that spreads the defense out by using multiple wide receivers and tight ends. The goal of the spread offense is to create mismatches for the defense and to make it difficult for the defense to cover all of the potential receivers.
Borges' spread offense at Auburn was characterized by its use of up-tempo and no-huddle play. This means that the offense snapped the ball quickly and did not huddle between plays. This helped to keep the defense off balance and prevented them from substituting players.
Borges' spread offense also made use of a variety of running plays, including the zone read and the option. These plays are designed to give the quarterback the option to either hand the ball off to the running back or keep the ball and run himself. This makes it difficult for the defense to stop the run and forces them to defend against both the run and the pass.
