Opposing fans hate Georgia Tech's offense. They just do. Paul Johnson employs what he calls the flex-bone, a run-heavy scheme with multiple ball-carriers. The Yellow Jackets show the same formation nearly every time, but the rush options are myriad (triple, even). The dive, the pitch, the keep. Sometimes, the drop back and pass. The triple-option chews up the clock and puts a premium on possessions. Comebacks are rare, because Johnson's team holds the ball so long, wears out defenses and keeps opposing offenses off the field. And so heading into Saturday's game, the homestanding Tar Heels know that they're going to have to make the most of their possessions.
