impact of mobile QB in CFB

[blion72]

Watson makes everything happen. if he were to go down, it would be over for Clemson - which is what Urban said. think about our 3 best teams since 2000 = 2005, 2008 and 2009. common factor was mobile QB. this forgives a lot of sins. conversely, BAMA is the standard for the non-mobile QB - no pressure on Clemson from the pocket except for passing. take Watson of this field and it would look like MSU - BAMA game.

tOSU would have been much more of a test for BAMA than Sparty.

I can't believe people thought Bama was going to run Clemson out of the stadium. Clemson has been on top most of the year. They are loaded.

And yet it is the non-mobil QB system that won. And how many times has Saban won the NC with his system now?

Just ask yourself what school has been the most successful over the last decade and what pro team has been the most successful over the last decade. Then ask yourself what kind of offense they employ.
