BIG football teams appear slower because they run boring sets. It's an illusion.

It sure is fooling a lot of people, especially out-of-conference opponents. LOL.

Yeah, all of their black kids are just slower. Make it stop.

It's a misnomer. It's an illusion. It stems from the standard offenses the conference runs. tOSU has gotten away from that, though. Watch them. They're fast as hell. Less so without Miller, but still.

Sports illustrated study last year put the conference speed difference myth to bed but if ESPN doesn't report it then it just didn't happen.

Agreed the B1G is generally too predictable on O. Better than 5 years ago but could still improve a lot.

The lemon and lime might be souring Oregon a bit.

Well, the Ducks are easy to spot.
Those are the ugliest uniforms in college football. They look like they are dressed for a gay pride parade.
