I think some under center plays will make our offense much more difficult to defend. I don't think CBJ whole spent time in bowl practice to install some new plays which were successful and then discard them in the future.
Butch has been here long enough to see the weaknesses of his offense playing SEC speed every week. It produces too many negative plays. I don't recall one negative play when they operated under center. I hope it becomes a regular part of the offense as UT can bully people with Hurd and the O line returning.Our offense is set to play matchups, Butch say a weakness in there run defense and short yardage and threw in a few wrinkles. It will not be a staple of our offense. We are a shotgun primarily offense atleast with Dobbs. We will see under center but it will be situational not a staple of the offense.

Our Offense was the 5th Best offense in School History this year, So that means we should change it right? This is ridiculous, I believe there are times to take it under center, but not anywhere close to what any of you are suggesting. We will be a Shotgun team with situational plays under center, and Hurd did just fine running the ball out of this offense, he only like 800 or so yards from being the all time leading rusher at UT and he didn't even play his whole freshman year.
Gotta choose your battles. The I-formation can't be used against a team like Alabama because Saban's defense is too talented and built to stop a pro-style attack. Against many of the other teams on the schedule though it would be nice to see it sprinkled in.
Hurd got obliterated out of that set on a regular basis...still got yards, but I think he's a 1500+ yard back. Mix it up right and he'll get more out of both. The off-set I ain't gonna be this years jump pass ala Florida...it ain't going away. Neither is the shotgun read.
