Problem is that now with two spread offenses in the West, teams are going to recruit and gameplan against it. Bama usually gets huge, fast guys. LSU gets quick, rangy guys.
There's a reason one of them won by double digits against both spread offenses this season, and it's the same reason LSU crushed Oregon and West Virginia a few years ago. HUNH isn't all that effective if the guys on the other side of the ball are quicker than you.

The reason LSU won by double digits is because Auburn improved over the year by leaps and bounds. The Auburn that LSU saw wasn't the Auburn that Bama saw.

By the LSU game, Marshall was capable of running about 20% of the Gus's Offense. They were not running the Option anywhere near how they were running it at the end of the year. Their passing game consisted of two plays that they felt comfortable with NM. LSU D had little to do with how effective the Offense was that night. As anyone will tell you, Auburn does not run the same Offense Oregon or WV run. I would say Auburn next year will not run the same Offense they ran this year. Keep recruiting that same type athlete.

LSU really did do a fine job of shutting Auburn's O down, right?
