what is 8 man football....never heard of it...

 

 

It used to be very popular in state such as Nebraska, Oklahoma, etc. I'm sure it still is.

8 man football is football played with 8 players. On offense 5 men must be on the LOS. There is a center, 2 guards, and 2 ends. The ends can be tight or split. In the backfield there is a QB, and 2 backs. Alingments can vary. On defense you can have many alignments. Some used are, 3-3-2, 4-2-2,3-2-3. Same schemes used in 11 man football on offense and defense can be adapted to fit 8 man football. I went to a game and found it to be very exciting. Some people did not notice the difference in number of players until after the game was in the 2nd. quarter. The field is 80 yards long and can be regular width.

Great that these schools added FOOTBALL. It is good that the young men in these school are able to have the experience of playing this great game.

My girlfriends brother plays for Community Christian High School and i have watched a few games over the last 2 years, and it is kinda kool. If u havent noticed games are high scoring because its so hard to defend the entire field w/ only 8 players. CCHS is like 5-1 and they are a good team in this league. I never thought i would see a thread about this so it just had to post. lol!
