If you knew anything about football you might not post stupid stuff.
One value of the toss dive is it presents "read" difficulties for the line backers. When they see a toss they are taught to react by moving to the outside since most tosses are for sweeps. That has the effect of giving the O-linemen a better blocking angle and of opening up the middle where the linebacker's movement has vacated. If they don't take that initial step to the outside, then a toss sweep will make them hesitate and get to the outside late. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
You are welcome.

I love when a comment like "you know nothing about football" is made by someone who is basically wanting to say "I know everything about football". I played, so I would say I know "something", but not "everything".
All I know is that's a dumb@$$ play that doesn't produce results. If it did you'd see smart OCs at other teams using it.

Then why does no one else in college football run this crap?
