Yes things are getting really slow. Ok, in your opinion, which offensive formation has had the the greatest effect on college football, and your reasons why. My vote, the flying wedge. It had such a negative effect and caused so many deaths Teddy Roosevelt had to strong arm the colleges into outlawing it.

	The banning of the flying wedge also gave rise to the passing game.

	The Wizard and the fact he brought "The Pistol" to LSU P.S. This is why I don't care for USC and Pete Carroll style football. If I want to watch NFL I'll tune in on Sundays and not Saturdays. Let me see the Spread, the Option, the Pistol and everything that makes CFB the greatest sport in America. Nuff Said! KNUT

	My favorite was The Herschel. Herschel off the left; Herschel off the right; Herschel up the middle; Herschel over the top. There goes Herschel, there goes Herschel. My God, he's only a freshman.

	I forgot what it's called, but there is a new formation where you have 9 eligible receivers. The best is the spread because it combines the best of other offenses into one, it's whats hot right now just like the option was 30-40 years ago, soon a new offense will be developed that'll be the new offense.
