I don’t doubt that sometime in the future a team will demonstrate a new spin on offense or defense, have a lot of success with it, and other teams will emulate them.

But, I don’t think Michigan will be that team. They were a one year anomaly, a blip on the radar.

With that said, I do think many coaches are trending back towards more of a ball control approach on offense with a bigger emphasis on defense. But not because of Michigan. Because of Georgia.

Georgia isn't really a ball control offense (or not just a ball control offense).

UGA plays a wide open offense that often runs tempo early in games. But when UGA gets a lead, they absolutely switch to ball control. While UGA ends up with a pretty balanced run/pass ratio at the end of the day (33 pass to 36 run this past year), they're more like a 60/40 pass to run ratio in the first half and 30/70 in the second half when they're icing games.
