I think the one thing to be a little concerned about is that, against the spread teams, we're going from a read and react style to a much more aggressive style. this can easily blow up in your face if Auburn calls a stretch zone and we're looking inside zone or vice versa. It almost becomes like tecmo bowl and Gus is pretty good at picking the play you're least expecting. This has been less of an issue in the past because of the more read and react style Chavis likes against spread teams, particularly when we've been stout up front, which hasn't been the case the last 2 years as much as it had been in the past. The plus side of it though is that read and react style can get you beat late in games like we saw, and also when we tried to be more aggressive it wasn't always as successful because that's the opposite mindset we played with most of the time. It's also less likely to generate turnovers than an aggressive style unless you have Tyrann Mathieu on your team.
