Auburn, Arizona and Ohio State all stunk.

I think it would be more appropriate for you to say something like...I'm wrong as usual.t-gator;n197091 said:My bad. Auburn did not but the rest of those teams did.

Law98gator;n196786 said:Nusschamp is the correct spelling. IF he is calling the plays, and he says he is, we will see run, run, run or pass then punt. So it wont really matter who the qb is so long as he can handoff. We just need a good punter. We will be among the lowest number of plays per game also.
They did but Arizona and osu could score.The Original DC;n197112 said:Auburn, Arizona and Ohio State all stunk.

Bama was mostly successful with that because they had a line that could dominate teams. I think being in the spread helps a team when they don't have a dominating line etc.
This something we can agree on. But we really don't know exactly how mac is gonna run this offense he hasn't really shown his hand.Gator Fever;n197109 said:That is what is making me a little nervous hearing this pro style and under center talk in Spring practice.

Why are you surprised? He hired a guy known for nothing but that.Gator Fever;n197109 said:That is what is making me a little nervous hearing this pro style and under center talk in Spring practice.

Still have to take that shot down the field to keep the safeties back. And hopefully the don't wait for 3rd and long to do it.oxrageous;n196725 said:I would hope the current coaching staff would tailor the offense to having a weak OL. Quick throws, etc. I can see Will Grier being better than Harris on a quick-snap-pass offense. If he has to do a 5-step drop, he may get up looking out his ear hole every play.
This is the most important thing IMO. Our last few years have yielded a crappy passing game despite throwing out of a shotgun formation almost exclusively. What this is telling me is that if we can find a guy who CAN complete a pass dropping from center it will open the play book up on all downs. If they don't know whether you're passing or running and have to respect both because you DO both from either formation it will keep the ears from being pinned back on defense. To me the guy who can drop from center should be the guy. Think about why all of the CFB record setting passers of the last 10 years or so haven't done squat in the NFL.....Gator Fever;n197185 said:I think teams will just load the box on us even more running out of a pro set mostly. I hope its true we at least mix the under center stuff up some and only run it maybe half the time.
Law98gator;n197221 said:Well, Nussmeier, under center, first team Will Grier really tells you all you need to know. You can ignore the evidence and hope for some Cowbell offense all you want.
It's also very unlikely we are going to attempt to run TWO offenses. That's just double the work and double the learning for our already confused offense.

Gator Fever;n197248 said:I thought we were under center more under Pease but maybe I am wrong on that. Our passing game was a little better last season I think despite Driskel falling apart even more than usual. I just see teams loading the box even more when we are under center because I doubt we will be able to run it good enough to make them respect that due to our O line.
