In 2008, Paul Johnson came to Georgia Tech and rolled up four signature wins including a 41-23 ass kicking of the Miami Hurricanes. That chilly autumn night saw the Jackets rush for 472 yards against supposed defensive genius in Head Coach Randy Shannon. If you’re a glutton for torture, you can watch a shortened version of the game below:
Coach Johnson did exactly what Flexbone and most triple option teams do against a defense that can’t stop them- run the same couple of plays over and over again. Wing-T and Flexbone type teams believe in an ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ approach to offensive play calling and will run through you with the same call over and over again.
