Definition of INSANITY!

Even being in the stands of the GA Dome and not having the type of view I would have had watching in HD. The play calling was very predictable...I understand this is no surprise and everyone probably shares this opinion (obviously I am mainly pertaing to the 2nd half). The two main play calls that I have never understood is:
1. When we line up in the "modified" pistol formation
2. The option with JJ
It just as seem as though we continue to line up in these sets and geting the same results over and over again...
Therefore, GC in my mind is INSANE (he continues to call the same play(s) over and over again getting the same result and expects to get a different one)
Who the "F" else in America runs the pistol formation anyway?? I could maybe understand it with Shepard being that he is a "scatback" type who does not need to build up as much momentum to reach his max speed or quickness level, but with Ridley...it's so apparent the guy needs to hit the whole with authority and have a few steps to pick up his momentum...Thank you for reading my rant

Their O-line is also not undersized like ours is...

ok..so explain to me why we struggle...what ever happened to just a power I formation with a fullback hitting the hole and the running back blazing through it? Do you think this has to do with us not having a great fullback?

It's just a different style.
Style doesn't enable or prevent success. Alabama and Florida are the last 2 national champs...their styles couldn't be more different.
Also, a power running game doesn't really play to the strengths of our talent.
