Up by 21 points with 2:24 to go in the first half on Saturday, Kansas State University QB Colin Klein tries a behind- the- back pass to his running back on a 3rd and 2 at the goal line vs Miami. Apparently no one told him that there aren’t any Assist stats in college football.
Besides the fact that KSU lost 19 yards on the play, the RB got tackled… by his own man? C’MON MAN!! This could possibly be the dumbest play in college football you’ll see for the rest of the year!

Hank, it’s all in the timing! Iplayed TE on my school football team. Our coach wanted to put in a trick play which involved the center snaping the ball, the QB faking a dropback as if he was passing. Then, I was supposed to pull off the line, grab the ball from the center’s butt, and run through a hole at the “2” gap.
The first timewe tried it, the center fumbled the snap. The second time, however, I took the ball and gained about 8 yards. We never put it into a game, however. It was a fun play however…
Great clip and post, my friend!

Thanks Steven! Guess you’re a fairly big dude to play tight end. Did you mainly block or were you used more on offense.
It’s not that I don’t think trick plays are a good call once in a while but if your team is up 21 points and there’s only a couple of minutes left in the half, what’s the point?
