A spread offense doesn't require a dual threat QB.
Exactly! A "spread" is a formation, not a philosophy. Auburn runs a much different O that A&M, which runs a different O than Oregon, which runs a different O than Wazzu. Leach's O needs a pocket QB than can throw the ball. Mobility is of little use for his QB.

Easily. It is a great scheme. Even the pro style teams run lots of spread formations. Bsma plays 3 wide with a TE a lot of the time.

Auburn's defense got stronger in the aTm game
The biggest difference in the game...besides the poor officiating, was the depth on defensive line.
Auburn went 10-12 players deep and constantly rotated players.
A&M's defensive line depth is nowhere close to that.
They started 1 FR, 2 SO, 1 JR on d-line. When Alonzo Williams went down (hasn't played since), they now had a defensive line depth of:
4 true freshmen
1 redshirt freshman
1 sophomore
2 juniors (one just getting over achilles surgery)
That's after losing senior NT Kirby Ennis for the season 2 games prior.
