[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 171431, member: 1640"] Two possible answers: (1) Speed is a marketing ploy used by ESPN and the sec and overlooks the fact that at the top level in college all teams have speed and the difference is minimal given the fact that most football plays of consequence do not use 100 yards or even 50 yards. (As an example of that last point, Dwyer was more quick than fast and he would have been caught from behind on many plays if the yards to go for a touchdown had been longer). (2) Speed is a real thing that only a few good teams and good conferences possess. In which case Tech is one of the fastest teams in the country as evidenced by how slow Clemson, uga and missy state looked against Tech. [/QUOTE]
