I'm not sure if he means HUNH or spread or both together. Obviously Florida used the spread but it was not HUNH.

Their offense was CLEARLY the reason they lost games.

No reason to insult Kirby about it, he might as well be a rock-em-sock-em robot in the "process".

So who slowed A&M down on offense? Not Bama. LSU did slow them down but Manziel looked hurt in that game. He was so obviously hurt against us that I don't count it.
So basically your whole premise sucked and you're wrong.

I think Kirby Smart's stock is dropping because of bama's abilities against the HUNH. Schools will start copying what Gus is doing and those schools that have openings will evaluate bama's performace against it. I believe he waited one year too long to get a HC job.
Would support a new thread based on this.

Agreed.

..So, in other words, once our Defensive Talent matches the big dogs (Bama, LSU etc) we might not have to outscore everyone?
Our O might have led the league, but it cost us dearly at times when we couldn't put teams away..AUburn comes to mind.
Or move the ball late in the 4th qtr at Mizzou in a tie game.

what a terrible thread

"The spread" is such a general term that it pretty much means nothing now. Myriad different offenses use 4 and 5-wide sets regularly and in so many different ways that calling an offense "the spread" barely specifies anything anymore.

Agree, and Auburn doesnt run 5 wide all that much either. So as you state the spread is a general term, which also often gets confused with HUNH

I'll play.
When was the last time a "traditional" offense won the SEC in consecutive seasons, in the BCS era?
ETA: Since clearly that's the metric being used for defining "success" in this thread.

Agreed. Auburn uses a lot of HUNH but not a lot of "spread" formations. People conflate the terms but they refer to two totally different things.

But did we really run hurry up like everyone claims? I thought we were a lot slower than 2010/2011. We didn't huddle to keep the defense from subbing.

Did not appear that Bama figured out either TAMA or Auburn's offense.

All teams are dependent upon players. UT's 2012 offense was one of the fastest in the country - faster than many spread/hunh teams despite being pro-style. But that team also had some outrageously good WRs and a gunslinger QB. No one complained about speed because the defense sucked so hard the high powered offense didn't matter and it was still pro-style.
Bammer's problem isn't speed but figuring out a new way of dealing with plays that allow many options from the same play. In time, defensive coordinators in the SEC who are used to a different style will figure that out just as others have done.

Aside from Alabama and a few LSU teams, all teams have won the national titles in the past decade with the help of an above average to exceptional QB. Alabama is the only team to have success with a mediocre player at the position. It's not that big of deal to design a system around the QB. Outside of having the best defense in the country like Bama, you can't really get by without it.
