College football coaches sure do have opinions on the hurry-up offense. Nick Saban, Bret Bielema and Will Muschamp think it stinks and is dangerous. Coaches who use up-tempo offenses like Dana Holgorsen and Mike Leach think that’s a bunch of nonsense.
Lane Kiffin weighs in on SEC hurry-up debate, because you were wondering
