[QUOTE="IEEEWreck, post: 25813, member: 617"] Boomer raises an important point that 'but Duke/AllBarn is DIFFERENT' misses completely. Football teams are extremely complex systems whose performance is not linearly predicted by the sum of its inputs. Next year has a good chance of being better than individual improvements predict. For example, the hair pulling about the O-line seems largely misguided to me. Sure, there were some ugly scenes midseason, but a lot of the O line's poor performance was predicated on the fact that they were trying to run the Vad Lee offense which placed a fair deal more pressure on them. That's not a punch at Vad, it's an observation about field and position. The base option for the flexbone disincents many of the defensive strategies that ended in ouch for GT. On many plays, the O-line will be called on to do different things than they did this year. Even on the same plays, the opposition can't bank on a lack of option threat in their positioning. I think we all model things initially as linear systems according to a pro/con list mentality. I'd just suggest that doing so for football is approximately as effective as for RLC circuits. [/QUOTE]
