Oklahoma in the 1980s under coach Barry Switzer, with Jamelle Halloway and Charles Thompson at QB.

Tommy Frazier was the best option QB.

Air Force has always been good, particulalry when they had Dee Dowis and Beau Morgan at QB.

Nebraska's Option-I was most deadly when Coach Osborne had the Huskers breaking heads in the mid-late 90's; they always leaned on the I-back as their primary moneymaker until Tommie Frazier/Brook Berringer (RIP)/Scott Frost/Eric Crouch got hold of it and started showing their a$$ on a regular basis, at which point Nebraska became "Option Quarterback U" (slight nod to the AFA QBs...they were talented, but had nothing around them). Their lines were so ruthless, you could literally watch them move as a group from destroying the d-line to taking on the second level and wiping out the linebackers and any SS foolish enough to enter the box, springing their backs for ridiculous gains...the option at Nebraska was so hot, even Scott Frost was able to transfer from Stanford (not exactly a higher institute of Option football studies) and look good running it...they're the last program to run the option as a base offense and beat big-time competition in the process of winning a national title (ask Miami about that there...)...Eric Crouch won a Heisman as an Option QB in the modern era of pass-happy offenses...not when everybody and their brother-in-law was running the option (60's & 70's)...you gotta give it up to Big Red...
