A play you wish LSU had run more

There's always a few plays you feel LSU could have run more. In the last 10 yrs, is there a particular play you feel LSU football should have run more?
Mine: Skyler Green in Wild Cat formation

That misdirection pitch. It was bread and butter at the goal line in 2007.

I keep wanting LSU to stretch the field vertically more often. I can't stand lateral passing... right into the teeth of the defense.
A LOT of interceptions and PICK SIXES happen that way.
I like passes that go 30 yards plus because it opens up the running game underneath, and LSU has the athletes to do it.
As an added bonus... if it gets intercepted... so what? It was 35 yards downfield. Same net as many punts.

Lee/ Chuck option
Flynn/ Hester option
the slip screen aka "RJ Jackson's in!"
seriously, just from this past season:
Scott/ KW in the I (anything we ran outta that seemed to work)
this "bubble" type screen we ran to KW in the SCar game. he split out but was behind 2-3 WRs (almost like that diamond look we give sometimes). easy throws like this coulda helped Lee more.

Which is why i hate teams that run the ball on 3rd and long. Take a chance and throe a bomb. Worst case scenario it gets picked 50 yards down the field.

We had a lot of different plays get picked off and returned for 6
And a lot of those 35 yards were picked off and returned quite far, I especially remember the one at South Carolina at the end of the half that was returned to like the 5 yard line.

For having Jamarcus Russell as QB, and a load of NFL draft pick WRs. You could count with two hands how many deep balls were tossed the whole of the 2006 season, especially some games like Auburn and Fla, where the box was loaded for a team that had shown a mediocre running game. It often didn't make sense. At other times, it was downright shocking. It was like looking at a showroom of Lambos and Ferraris that rarely if ever see the road.
And despite the change of coaching staff, especially when retaining of the former staff's OC, why Skyler and Trindon weren't tossed some more bubble screens is confusing. They had the same, if not superior cutting abilities and open field moves as Reed, of whom had excellent world-class Irvin-esque push-off and helmet-lean skills..an art-form for those that master it's subtlety. I realize the Ro-to-Reed Bubble was more a necessity than latter era superior balance and depth LSU, but still.

Wheel route to the TE. David Jones earned his keep at LSU with that play.
Also, BLITZ Casey Dick on 4th down !!!!!!!!

They really shouldn't be. If the route is completely covered the QB can check it down or just overthrow it. Those passes should rarely get picked and if they do, tackle the mofo. Lot easier than the 5 yard outs that get picked and have a free pass to the end zone.

the fake end around to trindon with RP and Keiland running the option the other way, play was money

Stretch the field deep more, and.....
10-20 yd. sideline fade routes to the likes of LaFell, Tolliver, and Reuben Randle

The Victory Neal....
Close second, more downfield passing to open up the run...they better stretch the field big time next year if they are goinng to bring in RS for the Tebow type running plays.

Inside of 5 yards it was deadly to Keiland.
