Funny how Spread offense is a "gimmick" until power teams like UGA get behind...

...then their *** will run a hurry-up, up-tempo offense and score in like 2 minutes. Whereas, when they try to run their normal power offense with Gurley, they can't do ****. It is clear, the hurry-up, up tempo offense works for college football wins because it puts pressure on the defense to make substitutions, adjustments quicker then the normally would with a huddle-team.

Teams like Alabama, UGA, LSU and MSU's coaching staffs refuse the run hurry-up, up-tempo offenses because they think they have the better athletes who can pound. Of course, which team out of the previous listing does not belong in the power team category and who should be running a faster spread due to the lack of athletes and 5 star recruits. Sadly, our Mullen-led coaching staff thinks they can win with they call a Spread but everyone else the 17ing stadium calls it "up the middle with Perkins and a cloud of dust Croom/Mullen offense."

You do understand the difference between a pro style and spread right? And that neither one of those have any thing to do with if you run up tempo or no huddle or both. That Pro teams run the 2 min no huddle every single week out of the pro set so its not something new. It's the base offense whether its spread or pro style and how the offense is run from that base. Croom ran a west coast pro style offense. Totally different than what Mullen runs.

Here's the frustrating truth:

The 2-minute offense is the best offense in football. Don't let the defense get set, don't settle for plays of less than 5 yards.

The 2-minute defense is the worst defense in football. Sit in a soft zone and give the offense 8-15 yard chunks willingly.

Don't look now.

Here comes that Auburn defense.

Spread offense don't mean **** if you can't stop them from scoring.
