We don't either. But we have been very successful with it. Are you watching the same games? If you think lsu runs that play "every play" and that it isn't a successful play for us, you deserve to be ridiculed

I love the toss dive. Especially with the RBs we have now. Hated it with Ware, but Ford and Blue did much better (better vision).

What drives me nuts is that we run it enough successfully where we could build on it.

Harris does that little spin thing, he could fake pitch and keep it once defense has adjusted and isn't trying to crash down inside (backside assignment for QB).

Would be nice to slip the TE out in flat or seam (depending on safety) every now and then to keep those LBs from reading the FB as a key.

Could TRY and slip the FB out on a fake. I can see that one being trouble though. Most of the time the LBs are trying to avoid FB to be in hole clean. Every now and then they engage and trouble would ensue.

Here's an idea... fake and send BOTH the FB and TE out, Fake block by WR(s). Because of QBs motion on the play, spotting something with WR would be tough. But, just in case some DB bites hard and safety crashes... But you still have TE as primary and possible FB same side as WR in space that WR/DB vacated.

Don't worry. It will become so if they repeat about 15-30 times per game.

what I'm getting at is it's not so successfull when you can key on the FB or in the case of Bama, the Center and know with a high% of confidence exactly what's coming at your super fast LBs and crashing S.
