1. The reason nobody in the SEC runs an option is that nobody wants to expose their quarterback. Talk all you want about matchups, etc., yout quarterback is going to get hit a whole lot.
2. Nobody is going to run the option well in the SEC. Our conference is the closest thing to NFL speed on defense in the college game. There's a reason you don't see the option game in the NFL. Speed destroys it. The same principle will apply in the SEC.
3. He's been in the SEC for two years and his offenses have been completely average. Lots of guys over the years have had teams put up huge numbers in the MAC and the Mountain West. Name the last one that went to a major conference and continued to do so.
4. Instead of descending into a trading of Latin phrases, which will bore the board to tears, I'll leave you with one of my favorite quotes, "Fortunate indeed, is the man who takes exactly the right measure of himself." By engaging in this fantasy that Florida is going to be some sort of offensive juggernaut, you have failed to take proper measure.
1. That's why we got Tebow. He can take and deliver big hits.
2. First, not traditional option. Second, its all relative. If we have the speed to do it in the SEC, it can work.
3. The reason the numbers have been average is that he has not had the personnel in place to run the offense the way he envisions it. Tebow is an enormous improvement over Leak for running this particular offense. Leak was a pure drop back passer and that's it. Tebow is a wholly different kind of quarterback.
4. I'll counter your quote with another, and one that really I think needs to take hold here on Volnation.

5/11 76 yards and 2 TDs in SEC play.
16/21 against UCF and Western Carolina.
I'm glad you did that. It saved me from having to look that up.
