[QUOTE="Yomanser, post: 313766, member: 2875"] That's basically what UVA did against Tech last season. Tech adjusted and exposed it in the second half. The problem is you're making a faulty assumption; GT is not a one-dimensional running team with a weak passing game, GT is a strong two-dimensional running and passing team. Otherwise, CPJ and his offense would have long since been figured out. I consistently hear opposing fans saying the exact same thing (in simpler terms) that you are saying now - stack the box since GT doesn't have a passing game. It's a faulty misconception that would end up with an opposing team getting burned Coaches get paid to gameplan against teams. They watch hundreds of hours of film week to week. Coordinators get paid to come up with ways to stop the opposing team's offense or defense. If there was a surefire way of stopping a particular offense, it would have been figured out by now. There's a reason you don't see Clemson or Miami stacking the box and going man on receivers. It's why I laugh every time I see a comment or article that reads "CPJ's offense has been figured out." The only surefire way to stop GT's offense is to simply physically overmatch them as Clemson did (which actually stops every offense conceived, not just Tech's). Otherwise, it takes extensive gameplanning, preparing, and practicing [/QUOTE]
