So you are admitting that I responded to your question.
quote:

How is this fricking stupid?!?! Name one team that runs or ran a spread offense that also had a top 10 defense consistently?

This was my response to your question. And in my response, I asked you a question, which you just responded to. You know why you can't think of a team that runs the spread that had a top 10 defense consistently? Because it doesn't happen.

In the SEC, defense and the running game win championships. See LSU 2003, 2007. See Florida even with Tebow. See Alabama last year.

And by the way, where do you get that we had terrible T.O.P for the entire season? We average over 29 minutes of possession for the year. Not very good, but defintely not terrible.

auburn just went undefeated with a pretty shitty d.They had the run game part but when giving the talent LSU has id think leach can adapt. the guy is not stupid he is a good offensive mind so im sure he could use our talent.

i think we would look alot like oklahomas o with leach but maybe even more runs considering what we have

answering a question w/ a question isn't much of an answer

it doesn't need to happen to win if your offense is offsetting the difference. And again, LSU's defense isn't gonna go from top 10 to terrible w/ the way things are set up on that side

there's more than one way to win, and just bc it's something different doesn't mean it won't work. When's the last time a passing guru that also had a stable of RBs like LSU's was teamed w/ a group as talented and well coached as LSU is on defense?

no. 70 out of 112 is pretty damn bad

All this said, Holgerson would probably be my top choice b/c he is more balanced, but I'd be excited ab Leach as well if that's what happened.
