These are more than likely some of the same fans that say things like "You need to tackle", or "Block somebody", or "Run the ball". I really like it when fans that don't know or even understand the game try to explain it to others. I had somebody tell me they knew everything there is to know about football one day, they didn't even know what a 3 technique was and told me there is no such thing. Then they went on to tell me how almost every major college in the country, from Florida to USC could improve their offense, by running this or that. I just stood there trying not to laugh at them.

The flexbone is fundamentally a spread formation. That’s the whole point. The tailbacks were moved to the wings, and the TE was replaced with a split end. All of this was done to spread the defense out horizontally. That is spread. Anytime you are trying to stretch the defense horizontally it is fundamentally a spread. It might not be as spread as a 5 wide set but its still the same concept.

PJ calls his offense the spread option offense.
I just got through reading all 4 pages. It was like a train wreck with misinformation than a counter intelligence unit.

well it was a good game for LSU not so much for GT. i felt like they never stuck with their offense for any part of the game...too much passing...i would have loved to see GT run their offense since it is a rarity in college football....good luck to GT next season

Props to LSU and good luck to them in 2009...but GT will be back. |

let's not get too carried away ... how many times has someone ON HERE called something "spread" just because the qb got in the shotgun?

It was 21-3 and their offense had only had the ball once. I see a lot of people down on the flexbone, or big on LSU's offense or their defense because of that game but it was special teams that blew it open for LSU. |

yeah i guess you're right windigo...that onside was the second time we ran it this year....ran it against Auburn too and it worked just as well.....and the fumble we had no part of really....i did not expect that performance but was not surprised after because LES is good in bowl games......

I needed a laugh. Thanks for posting that link. It was priceless. One guy called it the wingt. One said it's the spread because of the line splits. And fans are the ones who call for coaches head. I say bring in some new fans who know what they're talking about(goodluck with that), or get these guys to shut up. Although if they did that, I couldnt get as big a laugh as I just did.

:lol I love the guy who has like three separate posts trying to say it was the wing-t. And that video of PJ that someone linked to in there was good, but then they STILL wouldn't even take HIS word for it.

Speaking of the game. From what I saw LSU was to big and fast. I saw a SE crack on the SS. The SE ended up on his butt and the SS made the tackle. The A backs and SE's couldn't block on the edge.

It's typical fan talk. The talking heads on TV have everyone convinced that there is a "Spread Offense". Like Coach Huey says, basically every team that lines up in a shotgun is a "Spread Offense". Lots of fans on the Auburn forum I'm a member of are talking about how funny it is that Auburn is going right back to the same offense they tried with Franklin under Malzahn. I posted a link to spreadattack's blog on the offenses of Malzahn, Air Raid, and Urban Meyer...most won't take the time to read them. |

"The Spread Offense" is run by WVU, Mich, Florida, Texas Tech, Mizzou, etc, etc. As if they're all one playbook. |
