Everyone keeps speaking of this "new" offense under Beck. However I'm gunna shed some light on whats happening here, and take this FWIW...
If anyone feels obliged go to ESPN3.com and re-watch some of the things that both Auburn and Oregon were doing offensively. Auburn came out in their OWN high tempo to screw with Oregon's D.
If you can remember, Auburn did kind of a "flash no-huddle" as I've heard it called. The lineman are right on the ball facing the QB with the skill players already set and looking at the sideline for the call. QB barks it out to the lineman, they turn around and set, boom ball is snapped. I think you'll actually see ALOT of what Auburn did and ALOT of what Oregon did on offense just in that national title game not only here at Nebraska but around the country.
Also, I don't know if you remember what Oregon's Defense was doing some of the time, but they had every defender standing up and moving and shifting around the line of scrimmage pre snap. I think you'll also see a fair amount of this next season too, maybe not here at NU but around the country for those that are trying to stop alot of spread formations, and looking for answer as to do so. We've once again entered a new era of football that is going away from the spread as we know it, to a whole new Flash spread no huddle attack that relies on LOTS AND LOTS of option.
I liked what I saw out of both Auburn and Oregon in that game, its a game changer...Oklahoma St and Oklahoma already started using the "diamond-pistol" which we will see more of.
Funny Story, I was sitting in the hospitality room for coaches during a wrestling meet at a C-2 high school here in nebraska, up on the white board was a football formation. Yep, it was the diamond-pistol. after a half of a season at the college ranks its already finding its way trickling down to the high school ranks in Nebraska, if its happening in Nebraska its happening all over the country. FOOTBALL has changed once again my friends.
