[QUOTE="7979, post: 909468, member: 4877"] I was in Columbia Saturday with South Carolina friends for USC vs Mizzou.....went to bar after the game and watched Shane Beamer post-game interview... Beamer said, "What Missouri did to us today reminds me of what GT used to do to my dad's VT teams... they controled the clock by running the ball over and over and over and over again..." Running the football protects your defense....even if you go three and out... our first two drives in Tallahasee ran less than 2 mins off clock... And running the option with QB under center, also minimizes the "inadequacies" of your OL...run blocking is much, much easier than pass protection. The option also allows you to recruit 6'2" 285 lb OL... strong boys who stay low and attack DL and LBs... 3yds-5 yds-3yds...first down... move chains GT will never recruit enough elite OL-men (much less DL-men) to play Alabama football... When you are a 6'5" 315 lb 14 yr old, you KNOW you are going to play SEC level...so these kids quit taking math in 10th grade...they will never qualify for GT academically...and you don't just need 2 or 3 of these guys...you need 5 or 6. Full disclosure...I loved Paul's offense. It gave GT an identity that was recognizable to every CFB fan... " Oh yea...you are the team that runs that option..." Now we are just f***ing Vanderbilt....
