If you want to see an example of a beautiful offensive scheme, watch Tennessee's route concepts in the Alabama game. Saban is notoriously a stickler for DB play and Alabama has defensive backs as talented as any in the nation, but they looked like they were on Mars trying to mark Tennessee's receivers. Heupel's use of splits, releases and route combinations has some elements of Briles' offenses at Baylor but with new twists.
I'm not suggesting that Stanford try to replicate Tennessee's offense. I'm just pointing out that it's pretty cool when you have an innovative scheme that confuses the heck out of defenses (or offenses). Our run game under Greg Roman comes to mind. Hearing "we just need to execute better" week in and week out is insufferable.
