The common link among champions

[Glow]

And equally true is the following:

- In the last 10 years (2014), the winner has scored 33+ points in all but one National Championship game. The lone exception was Alabama 26-23 over UGA in OT.

- 6/10 games featured the winner scoring 40+.

What positions command the most $ and attention in recruiting? DT absolutely, and D$ is right about that…but right up there is OL, QB, WR.

Quite difficult to win a national championship without an efficient, borderline elite offense. Michigan’s offense wasn’t very elite in some metrics, but it sure was efficient at dominating clock and running the ball.

I think some of it is tactics but a lot of it is the supply and demand dynamics that Urban Meyer pointed out re: big quick dudes.

Tactically I think if your offense is to the level of Joe Burrow + Justin Jefferson and you aren't overmatched on the line then even a loaded defense can't stop you, offense wins the strength v strength battle in that case.
