Legend has it in 1971 Richard Nixon drew up/called a play for the Redskins. If memory serves me it was a double reverse or some type of gadget play.  It also didn't work but that's not the point tonight.

There's a whole lot of folks in here who have all the answers.  All the answers.  I think those of you who think you're pretty smart, armchair coaches and quarterbacks, should draw up a gadget play to run on Gus on Saturday. I'll choose which play is best using criteria known only to me.  I will then ask someone connected such as Ward or ricepig or Wilson or Forrest City Joe or Mike Irwin or maybe Lanny himself to get this play to CBB on Thursday so they can work on the play and then use it either in a critical moment in the game or when all hope is lost.  I'd love to see Gus take his hat off and stomp on the ground at some type of chicanery and pull out his thinning hair over a play someone here came up with.  I believe this is the type of thing we need more of this season to keep fans interested in the games.

So here we go.  Draw it up, tell us how it works, and I'll be the judge and get this play into the right hands by Thursday.

Anything plays involving lobsters or jelly sandwiches will not be considered for this contest but if you have a recipe or food suggestion for the game Saturday either for us or the team feel free to share here as well.

tight end wing left

full house backfield

QB and backs roll left at the snap, TE runs a 8 yard out, and the WR (right side) runs a post route

wingback slips out to the right underneath everyone else rolling left

throw back to the wingback

Touchdown!

Okay that one isn't going to win so keep trying.

This team will need about 57 good gadget plays to have a chance for a win this weekend.

Cbb used to seem to like to run trick plays once in a while.  He's been pretty dull lately.   I guess losing will suck the fun out of you as a coach.

Fainting goat play. Let's face it, our special teams are better at creating the laughs anyway.

I was calling these last year. Sosa as running back. Punt returns and kick offs. Go Hogs

After careful consideration, I'd like to change my gadget play from the "fainting goat" play to the "ugly kardashian" play. Specifically, this play is a tribute to OTR's (who some of you may recall, was the best basketball player Logan County ever produced) uncle Tugo Kardashian, who I believe was the inventor of this play.

How about the swinging hate.  Do you know that one...?

I'd use CK to soften up auburn's corners and safety, by running him on bootlegs and letting him punish whichever peep-squeak tries to tackle him.

Just let the guy make the tackle, just drive him into the ground real good in the process.

do that a few times, then start passing deep on them.

Might be hard to beat this one, boys.  If you don't mind I'd like to name this place darrell's cat head biscuit play.

This is true. Bielema had a little more "spirit of adventure" in him awhile back. Of course, our teams were a little better awhile back.

CK at Left Tackle, Ty Story at QB, and Austin Allen at running back.

From Tusk Till Dawn

Ragnow is probably our best player.  How about a few series of him running the wildhog with CK playing centet.

My gadget play would be spreading the field with four receivers, or maybe go empty with 5 (or motion the RB out), put Cole in the Shotgun and let him hit the first semi-open guy.  Okay, that might not be a gadget play for most, but with our reluctance to do it when it best fits the talent and offensive line problems, it seems like a gadget play.

Best gadget might be for our whole team to get stuck in an elevator again so we won't have to play

You're on the right track. If there was a way to lock Gus in a closet or have Tom Penders kidnap him and take him to Barnhill and trap in one of his tanning beds Penders would finally have earned his keep and it would be payback to Auburn for our coaches getting stuck in the elevator a few years ago and missing jelly sandwich time.

HoopS

Put our deep snapper back in the shotgun rear to the line, down in snapping position.

5 wide with the receivers, but make sure Yelda is one of them.

Snap it to the snapper. He then snaps it as far down the field as possible.

If I'm guessing right, they'll double or triple team Yelda.

We'll need Brett to pose in the titty twist position, think Waterboy. That'll distract the others.

That should leave Reggie Fish wide open. TD.

Will probably do a stupid swinging gate just to show he can do it..

~waste.

Stick to slants, posts, tunnel screens, zone reads and ISO

go hogs
GO HOGS

We need to execute our regular plays before even humoring gadget plays!

Do you piss on EVERY fire you see or, just MMQB?

We ran this one in Pee Wee football.  From watching our games so far this year it seemed appropriate.

It is called "Hey Coach.  This is the wrong ball"
