GT has a power run game.

so do big 10 teams.  but no one in the big 12 does consistantly.

Geographical determinism, bro. That's why the Big Ten can't win. They need a power game to win their conference in November in the snow, then they face UF supermen under the yellow sun of Arizona in a bowl.

yeah, that's the paradox.

OSU is the only big 10 school that's tried to diversify the offense.  Rich Rod will try to do the same in mich.  will be interesting to see how that works.

Purdue had some success with a pass happy offense.  Very against the grain in the big ten.

Actually purdue runs a lot, they just use spread formations.
