That may all be true (though I don't think there is much of a speed difference), but the triple option (when run extremely well with instinctive players) can really take away size and strength advantages of the D. For instance, Bama dwarfed Georgia Southern's players in 2011 and Georgia Southern's O-line averaged about 270lbs. Yet, it didn't affect their ability to completely run all over Bama's incredible defense. Nebraska had 10x the talent that a team like that had. So you can see why things would be interesting.

Agree with you entirely. That being said, I think Bama would beat 95 Nebraska 6 of 10 games
