Truth There seems to be some misconception about the spread and the SEC. It seemed to me coming into the SEC that the "spread" wont work in the SEC because of the defenses here. Spread can work with the proper personnel. In fact the spread, run correctly, can offset talent gaps between defenses and offenses. A less athletic offense can be successful against a superior athletic defense in this system. The spreads origins are firmly based in this concept. Its not surprising to see refined spread be successful against superior defenses now that the culture and physicality of playing the game are changing.
