Yes, hence the term "Delaware wing T". Plenty of schools run elements of the wing T. Ole miss runs the buck sweep for example.

I'm pretty sure that offense has beaten UGA a time or two.


Last 25 years it is 20-5 Georgia, so i guess you are right. A time or two.

Does that make you feel better?

If you want to go back only until Paul Johnson brought his offense to GT, then we are 6-2 against him, so yes. A time or two nails it.

Twice. It's beaten us twice in the 7 years Tech has played us with Johnson as HC

Seriously? And if you get in a fight and the guy you are facing is 4 inches and 30 pounds heavier than you, you are going to stand there and let him beat the crap out of you?

The cut block (While I don't really care for it) is legal. Why wouldn't they use it? You argue as if a team also shouldn't use the forward pass because you don't like it.

And how were they doing vs. UG with the pro-style offense prior to Johnson?


What difference does that make? You said they were doing well against us since Johnson has been there. They haven't.

When Tech was beating UGA or competing to actually have a chance to win the game they were running a pro-style offense. If they can put it together yeah the offense can be dangerous but PJ has proven he can't be consistent enough for it to work. He doesn't recruit well enough for it to work bc good recruits do not want to play in that offense.

Oh no you definitely should use it to your advantage and I don't have problems with teams using it if it's legal. I just think it puts dlinemen at unnecessary risk with 300 pounders diving at there knees and should be illegal. I guess we'll have to wait until a big name like bosa or clowney comes along and gets their career ended for it to finally change.

Thank you. Triple "nasty" option that will injure your lineman with cut blocks. Not worth playing IMO. Ask FSU. It's the only scheme that works with far less inferior talent against better completion. Vandy hasnt caught on yet. Look at Navy last year. I haven't looked yet but I'm sure Clemson lost a lineman or two for the year after tonight.


Thats horseshite, all offenses use a lot of cut blocking. Zero Clemson linemen were hurt last night that i saw.

I never said that. I was responding to the guy who said GT was worse because of it, but the truth is that they have beat y'all twice with it and been very close to winning multiple other games and zero wins with the previous prostyle offense. Thats pretty pathetic considering how much better ug recruits than them.

It's a Flexbone triple option offense.
