Think that I would take that one step further. Not all schools that run the option have as many athletes supporting their QB's as Florida and Auburn have. It is still a team game and usually the best team wins. For it to be suggested that Tebow did not have superior talent surrounding him is far from the truth. Same to be said for Newton.
These guys along with their teammates can win against poorly conditioned teams, or teams that are far from being called talented clubs. Auburn had a couple of close calls this year. Alabama made Tebow shed tears when they proved to him that football is a team game.
Next level, NFL, lots of big, fast, mean athletes (on the same team). They are paid handsomely to do the things that Fairley supposedly did for free. What a dumb ass he was, Cam's father did not subscribe to that theory and thus far it is worth millions.
In the MNC game, Cam found out that he needed a running back.
Some of the schools today are running the score up on anyone that they can. There is a reason for that . . . . even though the points come against teams that aren't equipped to compete, the point spreads are one of the main things that get these schools in the MNC.
At UGA we choose not to run the score up, that is if we can score against teams like UCF.
