I miss? An offense that actually required discipline and toughness. All this talk about Oregon's quarterback battle and these million-dollar portal classes, and nobody runs the option anymore. It was a chess match, not this track meet they call ffootball now. I remember our teams in the late 80s, the way we'd grind it out, three yards and a cloud of dust, and you had to be assignment-perfect every single play. Now it's just five-wide and hope your rented quarterback can outrun the other team's rented defensive end. The option taught you about teamwork and sacrifice, concepts that seem to have vanished with the portal. Watching these spring games with all these fancy passing concepts just makes me appreciate the beauty of a perfectly executed triple option even more. It was football in its purest form.
