1. An engine control system comprising:

  • a fuel cutoff (FCO) module that, when a FCO event is disabled, determines a feed-forward (FF) number of cylinders to offset a delay period associated with supplying fuel to the cylinders of an engine and selectively maintains a FCO torque request at a predetermined torque;

    a fuel control module that commands fuel be supplied to the FF number of cylinders of the engine when the FCO event is disabled; and

    a spark control module that maintains a spark timing of the FF number of cylinders at a fully retarded spark timing based on the FCO torque request.
