    GT plays the pussiest offense i've ever seen

    if your "quarterback" has 44 rushes, is he really a quarterback

    Except they had over 600 yards of total offense. I'd say ut plays the pussiest defense I've ever seen.

    Bama and Tech must recruit the same schools for kickers.

    would any defense give up less than 4-500 against 3 running backs and 12 WRs

    Plenty have. GT only averaged 290 yards rushing last year. ut's defense is really bad. They have been preparing for that offense since February. But, congrats on more Butch Jones!

    The key to stopping the triple option is scoring points. Something you'd think UT could do against a really small defense like GT's.

    The scheme is an equalizer to talent. That's why Navy, Air Force, and Army run it. They don't pull the same athletes, but if the defenders can't find the ball they can't tackle the ball carrier.

    It's the same reason the FCS schools were running the read option from the spread before the Power 5 schools.
