Spread-Option and pro-style playbooks...

Ok, I am a big fan of the spread option offense and the pro style offense. I also like the air raid, and flexbone. But I am mainly concerned with spread option and pro style for this post. I want to know what are good spread option playbooks. I tried Michigan's and right now am using Mississippi State's playbook, which I love. But I am really looking for a playbook that is more like what Michigan ran last season. The Michigan base playbook has some of what they ran last year, but is missing the things I really looked forward to trying, a wildcat set(for Denard, right now I am using one of the 5 wide sets for him), 1 or 2 pistol sets, and a few shotgun sets where the RB is set diagonally from the QB.

Also, I am looking for a playbook that is like what Michigan ran before, when Bo was coach, and I am also looking for a playbook that Michigan ran with Lloyd Carr.

This spread sheet is beyond valuable for selecting a playbook.

Yeah Florida's sounds close to what you're wanting. Last year they had the Shotgun Split Flex formation but this year I thing the just have Shotgun Split. They have a pistol formation, and you can run wildcat Gator Heavy.

I don't see how you can run out of the Michigan pb at all. I'm a big State fan but the only successful runs and read options I have come out of the Shotgun formations that have a wing back. I'm dead in the water if I try to run out of a Shotgun 4WR formation. The defense just reacts so quickly its hard to get more than a couple yards.

As you mentioned MSU's playbook is working for me but sounds like its not quite what you're looking for.
