OU, like Arizona, tries to get a lot of players involved in the offense ........

... It'll be interesting to see how well (or not) Oregon can run their offense against the devil front 7 as a clue to how things may go against the Cats. If the devils can slow down the ducks at all, that may bode well for your boys.


    Federalist had 1,000 monkeys type:
    Others with a lot more upper-level playing/coaching experience know a lot more about this than I do, but I'd think that one advantage you have in a matchup vs. the Sun Devil defense is the fact that you run a spread with more receivers. A more traditional offense like SC's sort of plays to the Sun Devil defense's strength by allowing the front seven to play a bigger role, stuffing the run, rushing the QB, etc. But with a spread and more receivers split out, that would seem to require more A-State DBs on the field, and also require the front seven to "stay home" rather than attack relentlessly, so to speak. It'd be interesting to hear if this is a correct assessment from some of those who've played/coached on this board... Anyway, it's not a matchup that I like with Foles playing so well and your OL not allowing easy sacks.
