Fake FG or Punt

Britton tried one against Florida his freshman year and it failed horrible I believe. It was called - but they told him if the gunner was uncovered then throw it. So he threw it but someone was there.

So it wasn't really a called play.

I remember the colquitt fake punt against florida. if it was complete, it was a touchdown and game changing play. he had the right idea but it was a blown play from the start. that is about the last one that i recall

If you draw it up right then it'll work. LSU pulls that stuff off all the time because they have it drawn up right and people will actually block for you.

One thing is for sure, no one will ever expect it. It wouldn't hurt to try. How could it be any worse that what we've been watching?

no doubt,at this point even if we goof it,it can't be no worse than our offensive play this year.

The last fake FG I remember was in 1995 against I believe Oklahoma St.

If we do try one eventually, let's not try the over the shoulder toss ala LSU. We have enough trouble throwing to guys we're looking at.

This year would be a really bad year to attempt any trickeration. We have enough trouble just handing the ball off. Can't forget about the other fixable troubles as well, such as getting a first half first down, kicking FG's, etc.

The basics. They're not what's for dinner.

Attempted Fake FG while playing Arkansas at home and we scored a touchdown off of it. I think it was when Clausen was there. We were up 28-0 after first quarter.

Britton against UF a few years back like everyone has said. It didn't work. His brother did it the prior year against Ole Miss and it worked.

To hell with a fake punt. The best thing UT's offense can do is punt it away on first down. The more offensive snaps the other team has, the more likely it is that Eric Berry will get his hands on the ball.

yeah he might have been gone. but also the UF player that meyer had bait britton into throwing the ball got a hand on it and really almost picked it off for a pick 6 that game...if that db had caught it, he would have been gone

it was blown b/c meyer baited us into doing it

92? Heath Shuler the holder. Can't remember if it was a FG or XP, but I think it was against GA.
