I guess it depends what a person is into

I could make a case that it gets dull today seeing everyone run what is essentially the same offense. It was fantastic when it was innovative (Northwestern, 20 years ago), but now it's on every channel, every game.

Personally I loved seeing the kind of football Nebraska/Oklahoma played and loved that rivalry. And the option was entertaining as you'd see the QB pitch at the last minute to a halfback who was taking the corner at full speed.

That said, today's "marketplace" (read: NFL) has made (non-academy) colleges running that offense obsolete. Georgia Tech under Johnson wasn't much more than a curiosity compared to the powerhouses of the old days.
