That, or fake the handoff to the fullback (DL or Hilliard) and then flick the ball out to LF on the edge. Either way, it's really nasty.



I've been waiting on that play. I'm surprised we haven't seen it yet.

There hasn't been much deception in the running game so far, but plays like that or the option, or faking the jet sweep to Quinn (or some other receiver), or some type of reverse, etc., can really slow down the defense and make the between-the-tackles running game that much more effective.

We did it against Wisconsin but the pitch wasn't executed and we lost 15 yards. This was mentioned earlier in the thread btw..
