The spread that Urban Meyer first created at Utah then again at Florida will die out. That was a special spread that I honestly don't think can be replicated. Not even at OSU. The typical spread will be used for awhile. I don't see it dying out, especially by small schools because as mentioned earlier, it's a talent equalizer. One on one match ups allowing to dump the ball off quickly give players an opportunity to make plays instead of running into defenses such as LSU/BAMA

The spread will not completely die out but given enough time defensive coaches will figure out ways to slow it down or neutralize it. LSU may have determined the right formula: ball control running game on offense, lighter faster DLs and LBs, athletic secondary on defense.
