The formation does NOT make sense, but OK, no time to substitute.
Half roll right, with the protection slid that way...QB checks to that. Backside (left) TE "influences" pass blocking, hopefully DE bites and rushes. (Trips right, so DE would be on backside TE, OLB slid toward field and formation). QB throws back to left corner into the waiting arms of backside TE.
BG fans rush Ford Field celebrating first MAC Title since 1992!!!
Change the formation a bit but keep the same basic play idea and we scored on that play against Pitt from about 15 yards out. Sheehan pass to a wide open Scheidler. IIRC, the tailback influenced the pass blocking in one direction, the receivers all went in that direction, then Scheidler, the TE, slipped out the opposite direction and was wide open for a TD. I think we executed a very similar play against Miami that year from a bit closer to the goal, but I don't think as close as the 6 as suggested in this scenario.
Throw it to Freddie barnes!!! Oh wait he graduated 2 seasons ago and the coaching staff never adjusted to him leaving, oh well I guess we will throw an int or fumble and go 2-10
SB50: very nice response and I enjoyed reading it. Something to think on. Two TE no running back? Your right a back should be in, maybe a fade in the corner? Time to run another play?
You leave the back in and put him in motion into the slot and see how the defense reacts to the imbalance. Then you throw to the left TE, or you go the RB if a LB is covering him in the slot...or you throw it into the stands.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Bg down (NO KIDDING) by four nine seconds left in the game. Ball on left hash mark, trips right to the wide side of the field, double tight end, slot right out of shot gun. What play should be called, no time outs. Remember first and goal?
Sounds like you're going to pass. As Woody used to say, "Only three things can happen if you pass and two of them ain't good."

Who is this Woody guy?
