I've heard a lot about the creative mind of GC, however I often find it to be a bit predictable.I understand the challenges with the QB situation,but the power running up the middle or the misdirection toss to KW or CS, and I must not forget the hand off to #8 after motion across the formation.I just see the potential for a more diverse attack with options all over the field sort of live the Quack attack from about 2 years ago. Any thoughts Tiger Nation?

If college kids could learn plays and execute them at the snap of a finger you'd see a lot more diverse offenses. Simple fact is you have to plan for what you can accomplish given the time and limitations of the players you have. And it's not the vast amount of plays you have it's the point in the game that you call those plays and how well you've taught your players to execute them.

I will defer to Crowton, since he has much more experience at the highest level of college football (along with NFL experience) and works with the players on a daily basis....

I get that,but for the sake of a good conversation do the Gators seem to have a lot of creative ways to implement the many weapons that they have at their disposal?

I see LSU's offense being wide open this year. He have a lot of offensive weapons and we have a good but inexperience QB so alot of the gadgets plays works in his favor. I feel one of the best qualites of a good offense is deception and we will have penty of it. I think our offense will be unstoppable

To give you guys a visual of a creative mind, who is the offensive coordinator for Texas Tech. If they had the brutal ground game that we have with their ability to spread the ball all over the field...Dammm Feel me???

What are the challanges with the QB situation do you really understand?

Why don't you state them in black and white for us.

The idea you want to get away from power running with Charles Scott is really funny. Scott is a power runner; that is what he does.

The offense we displayed in the BCS C.G. was with a QB who had been in Crowton's offense for three years--not a true freshman or a redshirt freshman with no SEC playing time. Wake up and smell what you are shoveling.

it all comes down to Jordan Jefferson

i like to think he is the capable QB we saw in Atlanta - but lets face it - he is still pretty unproven as a weekly starter in SEC

if he is the real deal then yea i see our offense being pretty crazy and unpredictable.

if he struggles in SEC then probably see more of a safe offense with lots of Charles Scott and alot of roll out passes to the sideline

This is a joke, right? One of the biggest criticisms of Meyer in his tenure at Florida is the LACK of diversity his offense has shown at times. Many Gator fans get puzzled by it at times.

Would you line up in shotgun on fourth and 1?
