Have college teams just given up on lining up under center on short yardage?

Game after game you seem these teams lining up in shotgun when you just need inches for a first down. Why is going under center nearly extinct now?

Pussy assed high school and college coaches don’t bother teaching them under center any more.

Same reason they almost all play patty cake instead of use an actual Snapcount now.

Not just college. Just happened with Bears in a crucial spot.

Epidemic.

Because 99% of OCs in college and pro don't have the faintest idea of the rudiments of football.

Don't get me started on blocking rules and schemes.
