junior4949 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I agree with Cy on this one. NU running the no huddle this year would look like the biggest cluster fu** you've ever seen. What's wrong with huddling up to get the play right? Then, the D has no idea what set you're even going to line up in. How many no huddle offenses win the time of possession battle? I still laugh when all the gurus said time of possession doesn't matter when they were talking about Mizzou being almost dead last. Well, maybe if they'd have huddled once in a while they wouldn't have lost 4 games. They were outmanned against Texass and OU, but they should have beat KU and Okie State. Quote Link to comment

junior4949 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Well there you go, we'd better do it because a few teams run it with success. Didn't a few teams run the WCO with success? Isn't this why Clownahan was brought in here? Just because it works some places doesn't mean it will fit here. Everyone's running the spread now, so we'd better just hop right on that bandwaggon as well. Quote Link to comment
