A&M had more running plays and rushing yards than Alabama. A&M also still leads the SEC in rushing. Spread offense does not actually mean you pass the ball 90% of the time. Not even close. Oregon also runs more than they pass.

Wake up. The best NFL teams have been running the spread for years. Watch new Orleans, Green Bay, New England and Denver.

JFF accounts for a lot of those rushing yards. And, again, A&M has an outstanding O-line.
However, when you spread the defense out you are forcing them to defend the pass. If JFF sucked as a passer, you wouldn't see the running game nearly as successful.
Just like everytime Oregon has played an SEC team. The SEC team has been able to stop the run with 4 down linemen. You can't do that against A&M because their O-line and RB's are legit.
A&M's offense this year is better than Oregon's has been in recent years I honestly believe. Same style of offense but better personnel and a special quarterback.
