Back to the age-old question, would a spread offense work in the SEC?

and would your defense suffer from your offense scoring too many points?

Spread offenses don’t work. Look at Auburn.

I was really hoping Leach would have gotten the Tennessee job to see if a true spread would work in the SEC.

All spread offenses are not created equal. Bama runs a spread offense now.

YES!
Will it hurt the defense? sure, any offense can hurt your defense. If you cant move the chains or score, your defense will suffer no matter what offense you run.

Just look back at how many spread teams have played SEC teams and the results to get your answer.

Isn't LSU running a spread offense? Or trying to run a spread offense? Just a shitty one?
I think this thread is a trap.

Bama definitely runs a spread

There are many variations of Spread offense. It’s like saying there’s only one kind of sandwich. You can be a zone spread, power run spread. Option spread. Etc.

Auburn beat UGA and Bama last year.
It does raise a question though. With Stidham back (who was considered a very good QB last year) and Malzahn still overseeing the offense, why is Auburn's O struggling this year?

This shows how dumb LSU fans can be.
Alabama has been running a spread since 2014, Auburn runs a spread, Florida runs a spread, Mississippi state, Ole Miss, Arkansas and Missouri all run a spread.
South Carolina, Texas A&M, Kentucky and Georgia all run variances of the spread with pro style concepts mixed in.
The spread works, what doesnt work in the SEC or at least not to the same extent as other conferences is the air raid style spread that Missouri runs.
But yes the spread works especially when coached by a coach who knows the concepts.

Please tell me this isn’t a serious question
Posted on 11/12/18 at 3:07 pm to The Egg
nope ,you win with defense , crossing the goal is all little kids know and a lot of grownup fans are the same way !

Because they can't run the ball. They only have 150+ yds rushing in 3 games this year.

A spread offense is only as good as the OC making the play calls and the QB carrying out the orders effectively.
ETA: Unlike the NFL, most college teams are still a run first program. Once the teams that have stellar defense become pass first, they are going to reign for long time. I find a viable passing game opens the running game much more than the run game opens up the pass (see New Orleans Saints).
