[QUOTE="steebu, post: 385368, member: 740"] Very true. Honestly, I don't care if no other P5 team runs what we do. What does it matter? We've shown we can win 11 games with this system, why can't we win 11 games again? We just have to work harder at it - mostly behind the scenes on the recruiting front, which is why I like this letter from T-Stan. If people really want to play that game, name another P5 team that runs Stanford's offense. I don't see any other team that lines up with 2-inch splits, 3 TE's, and short-pitches it to the tailback. ON EVERY PLAY. As an aside, and this is not directed at you, Techster, but honestly, when some of us grouse about, "Sophisticated Air Raid Concepts! DROOOOOOL ... LINCOLN RILEY SO HAWT ... PAWL JOHNSON SO DUMB ... " ... How many of you actually know what you're talking about? We use some of the core concepts from both the RnS and Air Raid. Things like Mesh, Y-Corner and 4-verts are all in our playbook. We scored on a mesh route when Tevin tied it up against VT a few years ago. Y-Corner was our TD against UGA this year (with a great rub run by our WRs). And we see 4-verts all the time. Other concepts like Smash have also been run by us. Stylee put up a nice set of vids a while back showing them. Maybe since we don't run it out of shotgun it doesn't count. :p The bottom line is we've shown we can win with this offense.
