We ended the weekend with the same 6 unbeaten teams in college football. Florida, Bama, Texas, TCU, Boise St., and Cincy. I've chronicled each of these teams in details in the pass. The most balanced team of the bunch is TCU. They are fast, disciplined and very solid in all aspects of the game. There is one team out there that doesn't get mentioned a lot and is the most difficult to prepare for. This team offense is tough, they are stout on defense and if your team faced them in a BCS bowl they will have their hands full.
Georgia Yellow Jacket is the team no one wants to play.
The Yellow Jackets run the best offense in cfb, the Triple-option. Why do I think it is the best offense? Teams barely run it and it toughs to prepare for in a short amount of time. You need a stud d-linemen, linebacker and safety to be able to shut down the option on a consistent basis. Growing up I hated Nebraska football and they ran this offense to perfection. Watching them gash your defense while your screaming at the TV is a helpless feeling. That is the same way Ga Tech does it. Josh Nesbit is the qb, Jonathan Dwyer and Anthony Allen are the other running backs. What makes this team even more difficult is they have the duplicate of Calvin Johnson at the wide receiver position. So when you load up the box and sell out to stop the run, Demaryius Thomas is bigger, stronger and faster than your db's. That is why is tough to prepare for these guys week in and week out. Paul Johnson brought this offense over from Navy and this kids are running it to perfection. What I love about this offense is that they know how to pick up the short yard, which is what you need in a tough game.
The Ramblin' Wreck are a dangerous 1 loss team. They have their rivalry game before the ACC championship game. All the other BCS contender better beware of this team if they are playing them in the Orange Bowl.
I seem to remember a young man once saying that college football had passed the option by, that no kids wanted to run it and that a certain team would no longer be relevant 1) if they continued to run it and 2) because they could not recruit players to run any other style of O. Was that because of a personal bias against a certain team? And now that the team no longer runs it, it's a good O again?
