[QUOTE="Techster, post: 136270, member: 360"] This is what I envision our offense looking like in the future with the OL and skill guys we're starting to bring in...except against any opponent. That Kansas team was not very good. This offense has so many layers, that when everything is clicking, it's dizzying to an opponent. Players have said that when we are executing like we should, they can see the defenders just give up hope. Guys are just running all over the field at will and the defense is never in the right place at the right time. We have rarely been a team to "out athlete" many other teams. We've relied more on execution and good schemes. You add talent into that mix, and you get the shredding of defenses like that Kansas game. Our last four games of 2014 against Clemson/UGA/FSU/MSU was probably one of the most difficult stretches GT has ever played. You're talking about teams with defenses that are loaded with future NFL players. The offense maybe had a handful of guys that will spend some time in the NFL (Smelter, JeT, Mason...maybe Waller), and at times we executed at will against those teams. I think what the 2009 game against VT and the Kansas game illustrated about this offense is that it can kill you quickly, or it can slowly choke you to death. Our offense in 2009 was our best defense. I've read that opposing coaches hate having to defend us, but they have nightmares about the day they have to defend this offense when it's loaded with high end talent. Well, opposing coaches better get used to having nightmares the week they play us. [/QUOTE]
