Let's hope we break out of the Nix Zone

I don't want to be Okie St. We can do better than that.

Okie st set records for offense last year and has had 4 or 5 first rounders on offense the past few years. I'd cut through my arm with a Swiss army knife for that.

This is the part I don't get.

So what?

They didn't even play in the championship game. That's the peak you want? Fine. Not me.

Lsu made the title game. Is that the offense you want?

Getting to the title game > leading the country in offense

I get that these offenses are exciting but its not necessary. JMO. I just watch teams like that look great until they run into a good physical defense and they have no chance.
Exactly....There pointing out all these numbers about total offense and this and that....Thats all great dont get me wrong but doesnt mean **** if you dont win anything....

They've been far better than we have the past 5 years.

The statement made no sense from the beginning.

"We're better than that"? Better than what, exactly?

Miami football is not a specific scheme or style. Football changes, and good programs adapt.

Alot of teams have been "far better" than us the past 5 years...Should we switch to those offenses too?
 
LOL so you guys point out one spread team that has done decent the past 2 years and that means what?


Would you like for me to point out pro style teams that have been doing good as well recently?

The last 9 bcs title games have featured at least one team that runs some variation of the spread, with many featuring 2 spread teams.

Yes, LSU and Bama both use some spread principles (LSU more than Bama though).

Do better than what? Be a creative offense that scores points at a record pace? You do understand it wasn't okie state's offense that prevented them from playing in the title game, right?

Keyword variation, not in the shotgun every snap even on the goalline/short yardage

They could also run the ball on short yardage when they needed to

Eduardo's TD was from shotgun?

Its pretty easy to point to the greatest season in a schools 100+ year history and say "we should do it like that" especially coming off.one of the worst stretches in our history.
 
The bottom line is that you cannot win a title without a running game that has some power to it, period. Teams like Oklahoma State will never win a title in this era of college football. Every single recent national champion has had a powerful running game. Okie St's style of offense isn't conducive to that whatsoever. I would much rather UM build an offense similar to Alabama's, but more wide open because we have access to better WR's.

How can you use 1 play from the only game weve seen as your base of reasoning?

Obviously. However, spread teams do a very good job of controlling the ball (with Oregon being the notable exception) because they utilize runs and high percentage passes to keep ahead of the chains and move down the field.

Florida's defense didn't seem to suffer from being attached to a spread option offense.

Jesus.

Fine dude. You win I am way too tired to explain this any further.

Sean Payton's Saints offenses run a number of spread concepts. When push comes to shove, they line up and have a downhill rungame element.

People will point to the stuff UF and Auburn did with the spread. You know what was the most impressive portion of their respective offenses? They both had transcendent college QBs who would almost invariably convert in short yardage.

Did you read your own post? You said shotgun *every* snap. It's not factual.

Florida's national championship teams had good power running games with Tebow, and whoever the RB was for UF in '06. He was pretty good. Those teams focused on running the ball a LOT. Not analogous to the Okie St. type offense at all.

Glad you mentioned Florida. I just mentioned it in my post above. They had, almost without debate, one of the greatest short yardage conversion specialists in the history of College Football.

Yep. And, Michael Dyer was awesome.
