Wake also has a bad oline , because of that they try to run a huge split.  we countered with speed in the gaps and caused havoc on the run and made the qb run for his life every play..

if you have DBs that can play press and take the Wr out of the planned play design the spread will force you to have strength in the oline to have any success..  if you have a good line you can run almost any play type.. if you have avg oline then you need plays that get your best players into space.  if you have a QB like Manziel/McNabb that can save plays you can make an Avg oline productive.

the spread works in HS because most smaller schools have olines that cant run or pass block but they have 2-3 quick kids. the Pros sometimes have t he best of all worlds.  the problem is the D's in the pros and better college teams also have less weak links.  the same thing the spread does for the offense getting guys in space it also puts your oline in places with less help..  you have to disguise your weaknesses or anything will start to fail.

avg QB play will still struggle..
