The article seems like gussied up common sense to me. But Scipio's gift is to make the obvious seem like insight.
I don't think the sec is resisting spread and tempo offenses anymore than other conferences. They're adapting at the rate of other conferences. Granted, the sec seems a little late to the party.
It wasn't that long ago that Leach and Tech were the only school in the Big 12 that bought into this style completely.
The funny part about last night was that Spurrier was the one that introduced the "fun n gun" to the sec 20 yrs. ago. But he was totally clueless against aggy like he'd never seen 4-wides in his life. He was vastly out-coached by Sumlin who I'm still not convinced is that great of a coach.
Texas laid out the blue print on defense against UH in '90. At no time can you let the QB get comfortable throwing the ball. You're going to give up yards and points but if you make life miserable for the QB and punish the wide-outs for coming across the middle, this offense can be beat.
