re: Would Marc Helfrich's style work in the SEC?

Urban Meyer met with Chip Kelly and possibly came to some Oregon practices after he quit coaching. That being said, Ohio State runs more of a QB power option run than what Oregon's been running the past couple years. Ohio State's offense is closer to Auburn than it is to Oregon.

The last year under Kelly Oregon changed the offense to have less of a QB run element because QBs were getting hurt. And under Helfrich it was more of an option pass oriented offense with running mixed in. Basically they ran it consistently enough to set up good play fakes and misdirection to get wide open recievers and tight ends.
