Was I comparing anything? But if I were -
The biggest difference from 20 years ago:
(1) Nebraska, Miami, USC, and Ohio State were the Top-4 programs, all Pro-Set except for the Huskers
(2) Stoops was a young genius at OU
(3) Texas was a juggernaut
(4) SEC was pretty good as always - Saban was in LSU
(5) Oklahoma (Stoops) and Oklahoma State (Miles/Gundy) were already Air Raid and in Transition
(6) Kansas State was quite good, BCS good and Power Spread but not really Spread but hard to stop
(7) The new Air Raid teams had to convert QBs that were not AR ready and change the positions of athletes that were DBs, Running Backs, and Safeties in WRs - big time at OU
(8) Slot men with great hands and wiggle like Wes Welker became heros - too small to be a pro-set WR for the Sooners but great for AR at TTU
