Wait, running out of the Pistol or Shotgun is now "gimmicky"?

We've been running the majority of our stuff out of the Pistol or Shotgun since 2012 homeslice.

Yeah, pretty sure running one back power runs and play action passes out of the Shotgun with 3 WR, 1 or 2 Tight Ends and a RB at normal tempo was not what was being labeled as "high school offense". But you know that.

Congrats on this thread, though. Impressive shite.

That's about when it started. Saban brought in Saban to run the same offense that has traditionally given Bama trouble.

That's what Auburn has done for years. Are you suggesting that Bama fans have only criticized Auburn's offense because it was up tempo? Is it the fact that a team runs plenty of plays that makes an offense gimmicky?
