    This is very far down the list from:

    1. Why does JSmith hate Myles Gaskin?
    2. Why does JSmith hate winning football?
    3. Why does JSmith hate wearing Polish peasant scarves?
    4. Why does JSmith hate Lavon Coleman?
    5. Why does JSmith hate Jake Browning's completion percentage and public reputation?
    6. Why does JSmith hate fitting scheme to personnel?
    7. Why does JSmith hate running with lead blockers?
    8. Why does JSmith hate running?
    9. Why does JSmith hate winning game plans?

    Etc.

    Lead blockers? What is this, 1995?

    Stanford and Michigan both love lead blockers and the old "man ball" I-formation stuff and both of their offenses have AIDS.

    The Husky offensive schemes are brilliant. The guy calling the plays and building the game plans is not.
    Their offenses are fine. Their QB's are shit. Stanford had one of the best offenses in the country last year.
    They had that despite the scheme, not because of it.

    Running antiquated I-formation offense is a handicap. When teams are successful with it, it is because their players are good enough to overcome it.

    Just my opinion, but I'm also right.
    You aren't right. Michigan is a top 5 team. Stanford has been one of the most successful programs in the country the past 7,8 years.

    Alabama just started running the spread this year and that is due to their QB. The good coaches fit schemes to the players.

    There are tons of shitty teams that run spread offenses.

    Running some plays out of the I is not a handicap. I like UW because they are multiple on offense.
    Michigan isn't a top whatever team because of its offense.

    And Bama could be extremely successful running the wishbone or single wing. Bama made it work isn't a good argument.

    Having a gold standard defense and elite players at every position gives teams the luxury to run shitty offenses.
    Most teams run spread. Most offenses suck. HTH.
    This is a terrible argument, from a pure logic perspective.

    The bottom line is that whether you agree with my views on this or not, Petersen seems to. He is the real architect of this offense and I can't recall seeing the Huskies line up in a two back I-formation set more than once or twice since he has been here.

    That's fine that Petersen agrees. Formations have little to do with an offense being boring. A lot of these dink and dunk spread offenses suck just like LSU's I-formation offense sucks.

    It's almost like having a good QB is important and if you don't have one and aren't Alabama, you are fucked.

    Spike Lee knew in '88. Beat Fleenor even.

    Whether an offense is "boring" or not doesn't even factor into it. An offense that can run or pass with similar effectiveness and can threaten the whole field (vertically and horizontally) is optimal.

    If an offense can do those things without utilizing "spread" formations, great, but there are few that can at the college level. It requires elite personnel at multiple positions and a level of precision in the passing game (WCO concepts) that is difficult to achieve under NCAA practice rules.

    I find it weird that some fans are so sentimental about fullbacks and downhill running "man ball" schemes. Apparently there is a decent amount of that sentiment around here.

    Probably because fans like plays that work and when there is something that disappoints them they reflexively want to retreat to the familiar embrace of whatever they grew up with. I am sure when I-formation teams struggled in the 60s they had fans who wanted to go back to the T-formation.

    The bottom line is that this is the best offense that the Huskies have ever had and it lines up in the shotgun or pistol approximately 90% of the time. And it lines up with a fullback 0% of the time.

    To the extent there is a problem, it isn't because we! don't use a fullback, it is because the OC is a retard.
