Common sense and championship Defense

I never said that you don't need to run. And the pros are completely different. Every pro team is a college all star team. Drafted and traded signed etc...

The best teams dominated in the trenches. So offenses spread out to try to get the ball into spacer quickly. Basically to try to equalize or hide deficiencies

Can someone please list the teams that currently play some kind of 2001 Canes suffocating defense? Thanks. Be prepared to have actual stats thrown back at you, though.

Jim McElwain 7, Tennessee 0

"Now" is irrelevant. Check with me at the end of overtime.

If the end of the game is all that matters, then why bother posting 7-0? BTW, Tennessee 14, McElwain 7 and gators just punted the ball.

If there was only a region that produced quick pass rushers, linebackers who could cover, hybrid safeties and ballhawking corners.

Today the rules of football cater to offense.

The offenses spread out defenses to stretch pass zones and open running lanes.

Most conferences play a lot of spread O. The SEC is a dinosaur who is slowly going to change.

Teams who play run stuff D, like Bama have a hard time against spread.

Teams who are geared to defend pass heavy offense get bludgeoned by Power run teams like LSU and Wisconsin etc..

The new model of Championship defense is Opportunistic and creates turnovers.

Football is now 7 on 7 that's why the defenses of old look so magnificent especially now.

OTher than arky, bama, and lsu.... all the SEC teams play pure or "pro style" spread, even Bama plays mostly 4 wide now. And More than half the sec plays uptempo too. Not sure how the SEC is a dinosaur...

Bama has done relatively fine against the spread, and Their problems with uptempo teams arent unique. They don't play a 2 gap 3-4 against spread teams. They adjusted years ago...

Ole miss needed 5 turnovers, a fluke td pass, and a missed ineligible lineman call last week, and they only scored 17 last year against Bama.

They are gonna change the the lneligible lineman down field rule to 1 yard past the line of scrimmage. It was on the agenda but they didn't get to it in time this year. The refs already called it twice in the UF game today. Saban has enouth pull to force that Change, and that will slow down alot of the run pass option and crazy scramble plays that offenses use now. They are also calling WR pick plays (FSU ND last year) more often now too.

Football goes in cycles. Teams adjusts and rules adjust, there isn't a magic formula, it's about the Jimmies and Joes...

The SEC is a dinosaur? This analogy doesn't apply considering they are the best conference in the nation.

They are the most physical yes but they are also overrated... Their elites arent the creme de la creme anymore. The gap has been closing
 
SEC is the best? Lol, no. This isn't 2008. The PAC 12 South has more talented teams than the entire SEC.
