You watch all these spread offenses now, RPO this and tempo that, and I just miss the old option game. Back in the 1998 Sun Bowl season we had a quarterback who could pull that ball and hit the corner before the safety even knew what happened. None of this standinng in the shotgun reading coverage nonsense. That triple option we ran against Southern Miss in 1999 when we put up 52 points, that was real football. Three things could happen on every play and two of them were bad for the defense. Now everything is just throwing it 50 times a game and hoping the quarterback doesnt get killed. The option required discipline, timing, and a mean fullback who wanted to punish a linebacker. They dont teach that anymore.
