The biggest difference in between the two is the responsibility of the skill players (QB, RBs, Wrs) & the center. In spread offense, every aspect is predetermined & any audibles whether it's a route adjustment, change from run to pass or vice versa, or change in protection all come from the sideline. In a pro style, it's the responsibility of those skill players to read their keys to make the adjustments themselves.

---

This statement is simply not true at all. There are a lot of spread offenses in college football that do allow post snap adjustments by the QB and who he reads and what route the RB's & WR's run based on the coverage, alignment and leverage of the secondary.

quote:

---

The spread is simplified & easier to digest but if a defense can adjust & audible after the second call comes from the sideline then a defense can create problems.

---

The ony adjustment pre snap that comes from the sidelines for quote "Spread" teams is when they are freezing or freeze looking a defense. That is when the defense makes the second call to either stick with the defense called or audible to something different.

quote:

---

That's the whole reason the majority of spread offenses go uptempo to negate the ability for a defense to audible.

---

No it's not. The main reason the spread offenses go no huddle is because tempo is the great equalizer. Defensive lineman as a whole are always going to be superior athletes compared to offensive lineman. The reason for Tempo is to wear out the defense especially the defensive line so over the course of the game the Offense can can begin to imposs their will physically because when a man gets tired his mind goes. Physical fatigue makes a coward of all men.

The spread is simplified & easier to digest

Which is why so many teams across America at every level of football are having so much success with running spread offenses. If you can get a great athlete on the field going fast as possible and not having to think about so many things because he knows how to line up, where to line up, where he's going then his talent will be maximized. When players have to think they slow down because doubt is created. The beauty of a lot (NOT ALL) spread offenses is that you aren't trying to reinvent the wheel or build rocket ships. Remember at the end of the day it's just football it's not nuclear physics. A lot of good coaches outsmart themselves because they try to make football a lot more complicated than it really is.

You guys are missing the real question. If spread offenses are easier to learn AND we keep recruiting the top tier dual threat guys AND we have better athletes at the skill positions than 95% of the colleges in the world then there is one inescapable conclusion....
We should run the spread.
Our athletes running all over the field combined with our shutdown defense would be a potent combination!

Ding Ding Ding we have a winner, what do we have for him Johnny!!!

Dude you say stuff that I'm thinking for real! You seem like the kind've LSU fan that I could actually have a rational conversation with. You're all over the real issues at hand. I'm with you, who gives a freak about the NFL. This College Football and LSU's job is to win and do whatever it takes to win by using all the talent they have at their disposal with coaches that will put them in the BEST position to be successful play in and play out, game in and game out, year in and year out. The one thing that all my non LSU friends always say to me about LSU's offense and lack of good QB play year after year is this: "At the end of the day, it's simple your mother freaking LSU, how do you not have elite QB's and an elite offense with all the freaks ya'll have at the skill positions year after year". That's the really sad truth of it all, it really does boil down to scheme, the head coaches personality and what he is willing to do or in Les Miles case NOT willing to do on offense to be successful.

Harris is being developed to run LSU's style of offense, which is more multiple than the spread shite you see with 95% of college teams

---

Multiple doesn't equate to being better. I think we can all attest to that truth in regards to LSU's offense in the last 8 years. That spread shite that you speak of is a whole hell of a lot more productive and hard to defend than what LSU has been doing on offense in the last decade. You don't see coaches across the country beating down doors to come see what LSU is doing on offense and trying to add it to their game. You see coaches across the country going to places like Oregon, Baylor, Texas A&M, UCLA, Cal, Auburn, West Virginia, Texas Tech, TCU just to name a few because they want to stay on the cutting edge of football and not be stock in the 1970's like LSU does with Miles.

Tom Brady, Joe Montana, John Elway, Peyton Manning, Dan Marino could be the QB at LSU and it wouldn't matter. We are going to always consistently run the ball into 8-10 man boxes and let all those freak athletes stand on the sidelines in the LSU uniform looking pretty and wasting their talent because by God this is the 1970's and we are going to be a tough Michigan football team and be tougher than the other team by God, even if we lose we'll know we were the tougher team, NOT the smartest team just the toughest. Watching LSU's offense is like watching a constipated person try to take a crap, it's incredibly painful to watch. It's like watching someone die a slow death

Fixed it for ya

Les's style puts an incredible amount of pressure on the Defense

We scored a lot of points in 2011

Yep sure did, thanks to a ton of turnovers by the defense and special teams. LSU's offense has sucked a major donkey dick the last 5 years.

All 3 of those teams run the Triple option out of the gun with a lot of success.

Whenever someone has the role of a TE's coach it means that while he coaches the TE's he is also the 2nd OLine coach. It's a way to have 2 OLine coaches. The TE coach obviously coaches his guys but he is also the 2nd reinforcement behind the OLine coach. Hope this clears it up for you.

People that actually (Think) that A&M's joining of the SEC hasn't and will not continue to affect all other SEC teams recruiting in Texas just aren't leaving in reality.

Kids in Texas now know that if they want to play in the best conference in America they can stay home to do it. Texas will still get their share of the kids but now A&M is starting to get a ton of good players. Baylor's resurgence along with TCU's has helped getting kids out of Texas a lot harder then it's ever been.

A&M is and has been a sleeping giant in college football. A&M has almost untapped resources. They are one of the biggest universities in America and they have 1st class facilities, money, huge loyal alumni base, support, resources and one of the best recruiting grounds in America to choose from. They have underachieved for decades.

Everyone said A&M was going to suck in the SEC and they were going to get hammered, etc, etc So much for that working out for everyone. In 1 year they have put a shot in the arm to their entire program and went toe to toe with everyone in the SEC and have the best player in college football running their offense. They beat Bama, won 11 games and are wrapping up one of the best recruiting classes in the country.

A&M is here to stay and I'm actually glad because it now makes the A&M/LSU game much more important in the landscape of college football in the coming years.
