[QUOTE="Pointer, post: 780819, member: 4719"] 1) coaches coach schemes that they feel give [B]them[/B] the best chances to be successful. One scheme may be more advantages than another and we can argue which scheme is best until at are blue in the face, but that's not the point (and more based on opinion of either side than anything). A coach runs a scheme that that coach feels they can install successfully and can call successful plays from. It's not just how the players fit, but it's also the question of is the coach capable of installing said scheme and calling successful plays from it. [B]Summary[/B]: scheme less important than coaching. 2) Your whole post regarding some offense being designed to score more points per game neglects the fact that in the best case scenario regarding your offense assuming it's scoring every drive, your defense has to be good enough to stop the other team. Otherwise you're both putting up the same number of points regardless of the explosiveness or pace of either team. Now let's assume we don't have a lights out scoring machine in place yet. We can still call "explosive plays" and do it with tempo, but if that 30+ yard pass attempts fall incomplete on first, second, and third down you just got off the field real quick (see our offense the past two years). 3) please explain lower production, I'm not sure I follow where you're going with that. 4) Again let's assume both teams offenses are scoring every drive. One team runs tempo so they are used to allot of possessions per game, the other can run more methodical (our old offense). The up tempo team suddenly doesn't have the same number of possessions they are used to throwing them off rithym, and their defense is getting more and more gassed throughout the game. While the side who hasn't been scoring as fast, had a defense that has been getting scored on as well, but are much fresher towards the end of the game and much more likely to get a stop than the up tempo offense teams' defense (mouth full there). For an example, see our championship game against Clemson 09. Edit: With all that said, I really do think we get a nice boost on both sides of the ball this season if for no other reason than coaches having a full pre-season to coach. Not saying we will be world beaters or unstoppable, but I expect much better results this season with a floor of 6 wins and a chance at much better than that. [/QUOTE]
