re: What does Miles pull out of his hat?

The "trick plays" tried haven't worked against Bama since the 4th and 1 reverse in 2010.
Recall any others against Bama that have benefited since?

Agreed. Its something you have to be prepared for when you play LSU even though we don't do it a whole bunch anymore. Saban always has his guys ready for it. I think the closest to a trick play we'll see is a well conceived pass play on what looks like an obvious running down like the play against OM.

Zero pass attempts for a new record since the addition of the forward pass in college football.

The prevailing thought amongst coaching staffs is that to beat a Saban team, you have to do it with the unexpected. You're not going to just line up toe to toe with his recruiting and coaching abilities.

We went to great lengths to set up the most crucial winning play in 2010. Remember Ford being knocked out of bounds a yard shy setting up 4th and 1, and we went for it?

Our blocking TE on Ford's run stayed on the ground and faked injury, so the insertion of Deangelo Peterson did not draw attention. Everyone remembers the next play where Ridley takes the toss then pitches to Peterson who runs down to the three.

I have it on good authority that Saban lost sleep many nights for a couple of months asking how in the Hell could a sane man do that? Lol

But we went overboard in 2012. Beat them straight up and gave it away taking the same type of risks that won it for us on that play in 2010. shite like this is just part of what makes this game so good. Remember, we fumble on the 1 going in to take the lead last year, and still have momentum in the second half, until Saban calls fake punt to break our back.

Pass play on first down. I'll be like

Hopefully nothing. That terrible fake fg lost us the 2012 bama game.

we MUST use quick passes i.,e slants and screens, or Bama will use the same formula as in the NC game.

crowd the middle and do not give time for the QB to throw deep.


Miles and CAM BETTER HAVE THAT IN THE GAME PLAN

That is a "hook and lateral" you refer to! Where does the ladder come into the play? However, you are no worse than the dumbass announcers!

Toss Dive Double Reverse Flea Flicker with Hook and Ladder on the back end.

I suspect we will run the option to Buga around the end....not to the weak side either...
