Spread out, loosen the box, and the yards will come.

5 versus 9 is losing football any way you cut it. I could bring back LSU's all-world team for one game and even they would have a tough time against a stacked box. It's numbers.

Yeah. I remember a game when I played in high school when our head coach insisted trying to "establish the fullback" as part of the option playing against a team running a 4-4 that was crowding the line on almost every down. We were physically about equal but they killed us because our coach was stubborn. We needed to be working the edges to get them out of that front.

This point can not possibly be overemphasized enough!

I'm so sick of this "spread them out" shite
We don't recruit for the spread
We don't run the spread

Let Cam work the offense. We're gonna be a heavy Pro-Style team including the spread Elements he's incorporating. We aren't going to just run 4 wide sets the whole fricking game because these high school coaches in here thinks it's the "best offense ever".

This is nonsense. If it was true, no coach would ever line up with two tight ends and a fullback.
