re: Death to the fade route

Something I found interesting last year when Ohio State beat Indiana in OT with our then back up Kenny Guiton, Ohio State has a specific play practiced and ready no matter the opponent and agreed to run that play if they ever needed to go for two.
There was an argument among urban and Tom Herman, Herman was screaming that they all agreed to run this play no matter what. It was a skinny bootleg to the right with the right side right end slipping across the flow of the play and releasing into the end zone on the left.
I'm sure other schools do this, but it's almost like practicing a free throw. You know it's gonna be in the center of the field three yards out.

This is my other pet peeve
Every coach does this. They have a pre determined play for a 2 point conversion, which makes sense.
What doesn't make sense is that most of them use the play you are describing a little. We did it in high school, LSU has done it in EVERY two point conversion they've done the past 5 years and it's the same play
Rollout to the right...and I HATE that call. It cuts the field in half when the field is already small! It works about as much as the fade route
Only time I've seen it work was against Tennessee with Jordan Jefferson I think in 2010
