Yeah, I've heard we one lost one blowout that year. But we won with ST and defense and a just enough offense, as always.
Id certainly give anything for some Creyer STs right now. Felt like we could block it at anytime or break a run.
No, I really liked 2007 offense. I liked the OFFENSE in 2004 better, but 2007 especially was good. We were actually trying to score more bc we knew the defense was poor. Felt like we had to let it all hang out. We also did that in 2006 OSU and 2009 Cincy.
I hate conservative third down, throw a slant, screen, run a draw whatever and hope the guy runs for 15 yards kind of offenses, whether they are option, spread, Mumme spread (passing), whatever McElstank calls his shyt, all of them.
I would never pick an option scheme though, you are right. However, I don't make the hires. We keep trying to create that Doug Dickey option magic.
