Motor City Bowl

I don't know about good offense, but definitely high octane tonight. Both teams were in the position they were tonight because some facet of their game wasn't great (barely over .500 for both teams, I think).. but definitely good to see the ball flying through the air.. makes for an entertaining game.
 
the Chippewas lost to NDSU 44-14 at home this year.

That's why I took Purdue and gave the points...f-n big 10

Nice to watch some good offenses, eh?

I'd rather win 22-20 than lose 51-48. :thumb:

Oh, back to your subject...yes, good offenses. :laugh:

Offenses with a little killer instinct and imagination. The go for the jugular attitude ours has been lacking for years.

Oh, I agree but since you hang out w/ AG2 I thought I'd flip you a little chit. :thumb:

Why is it that most spread offense teams now a days have horrible defenses?

I'm not so sure the D is horrible, it's more like the question "what happens when two unstoppable objects collide"? Both of those teams had very productive O which gave the appearance of weak D. :twocents:

They have really really agressive and Imaginitive OC/Coaching staffs...Playing to win!!!


It's not a lack of "D"


I am a college football fan...I have watched a lot of great shootouts over the years, it's not because of bad defenses..it's offenses who find a wrinkle ( a good offense will find a lot of wrinkles) and exploit it with agressive type play calling.

Why go for 5 yards...when you can go for 15 yards.

Why go for 10 yards when you can easily run 18-25 yard patterns.

get the idea???

These guys can set up offenses and use motion packages to create mismatches...and they look for them


MONTANA NO LONGER DOES ANY OF THIS!


I believe that RP has our QB's looking to one area to run routes towards..because we go series upn series with players running backside post and flags...literally uncovered for 15 yards...and never even look that way.

No Coach would let a Division I QB do that unless it was part fo their game plan. If anyone wants to question me on this...grab some film and I will get 3 coaches together in a weeks notice who have probably never even been to a griz game and have them break it down on film for anyone who is interested to prove me wrong.

It's not brain surgery...but the results are fun as the thread is making very clear to a lot of fans!
 
Defenses will catch up the spread in a couple of years and we will see teams like the 2000 Ravens win super bowls. It goes in cycles, offense gets ahead of defense then defenses catch up.

Just like how defenses figured out how to beat the option.

DOH!
