At SMS we had many trick plays and we named none of them what they really were

Honkey Lips was where our FB was end man on line and snapped the ball threw it behind a blockers on opposite numbers. Originally called Donkey Lips but our RB asked why we calling our OL Honkies?

Free the Slaves was a fumblerooski

Victoria’s Secret was a play where we lined up with 4 yard splits and was just trying to get them call a time out. Named because you could see through the line

Fireman was a hook and lateral

Run boy run kickoff return where the 4 deep guys ran to hide the ball

Guppy was a punt return where we threw it back across the field we never ran it because our returners could never throw the ball right in practice

Ambush was a double reverse

Apache was a fake punt where the Upback got direct snap. We actually used this multiple times

Ball Hog was a fake punt where the punter threw it. We used this only one year when our punter was a LF for baseball team

Shoe Shine was a reverse pass by a TE. Named because our TE that first threw it liked to use shoe polish on his turf shoes

We had hideout on my high school team. A WR would get yelled at by the coach, run over to talk to him, argue with him right near the sideline, and then go deep when we snapped the ball.

We ran the Flex Bone at SMS. It was best damn offense around

Just think how confused a defense would get when we ran Victorias Secret

When Miller showed up we ditched the Flex and trick plays

Aggie Pass (we didn’t name it…it became famous first at A&M)

QB throws a backward pass (but barely behind parallel to help sell it) where it bounces to the receiver. The receiver catches it on the hop and glumly starts walking back to re-huddle as if it’s an incomplete pass. Ideally the D lets up and a receiver on the opposite side of the field runs a deep route. The initial receiver then pulls up and fires a pass to him.

The key and hardest part of this is that the first pass has to be perfectly thrown to bounce correctly.

Miami Special-- was a copy of the Hook and lateral the Dolphins ran at the end of the first half in a 1982 playoff game against the Chargers.

CRAZY LEGS:

Halfback pass to eligible lineman. This particular lineman was huge but he had soft hands, never missed a catch (4 TDS). Problem was he also had the biggest/bulkiest knee and ankle braces you have ever seen. They were ridiculous, hence coach making it “Crazy Legs”.

Back in my JV glory days, all 5’6” and 140 lbs of me back then, I was on the scout team for punts and I was the upback on the right side. One team we were playing that season had done that in a game so we practiced it. Yeah, our massive DE lit me up multiple times. One time I think I made it back to the line of scrimmage. I somehow got around him but our OLB plants me in the ground.

Prevent us from winning

Not handing the ball off to Isaiah Spiller or Devon Achane once against Arkansas after Spiller rattles off a 67 yard TD run.
