Not saying this isnt a good hire, but I think there is a reason offenses like this (and TTech) have trouble winning championships- at least in the SEC.

The offense may score more touchdowns, but the drives that stall are usually short and burn no time off the clock. That puts the defense on the field a lot more- wearing them down.

But what do I know? Be interesting to see if it can work with Auburn's talent on both sides of the ball...

Should be very interesting. The offense will score more points, but more pressure will be put on the d. All in all, I am pretty excited about it and think it is a very good move that will help greatly in recruiting skill positions on o. The timing is right too with Burns the likely qb next year. If he has to learn a new system, now is the time. With all of AU's backs too, it should be interesting. Power spread maybe?

Probably about as much pressure as all the 3 and outs did this year...
