Similar to our fake punt in 04 at ASU except that UT was ready for it.

Also, if the punter had thrown it well it would have been successful. I'm not saying you expect the punter to make a great throw, but it would have worked as designed.

Good thing for Saban is that he's built a strong enough team that it didn't matter.

Exactly, it is an option that Saban has installed that if the punter sees the gunners uncovered they can audible to a pass play. Unfortunately for them Texas seemed to know this too. Maybe Muschamp figured they could deke Bama into trying it.
