gr82b4au 5,583 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Just like the 4th and 1 play... we hand it to JW up the gut for a loss on the play. This is not working... it did not work last week against LSU. It will not work next week or the week after unless the OL changes something. So...Maybe try a fake toss and either have Stid run it in or pass to a receiver? Or line up under center a few times and get a few yards each time? Or use the wildcat? or a jet sweep? Something... What would you call? Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/164106-first-and-goal-from-the-3-yard-line/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

atl-tiger 655 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I really liked the fake pitch roll out play we scored a TD against LSU on. Believe it was thrown to Slayton. But to be honest I lost a lot of confidence in this offensive coaching staff after they call a time out on 4th and 1 and thats the play they came up with. Are we not watching the same line?

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I'd call 4 quarter back sneaks. Don't hand it off behind the line, don't snap it to a back 4 yards behind the line, don't try to get tricky. Line up under center, and run a quarter back sneak. Either this, or run an I-formation handoff to Chandler Cox. Run something that lines up and goes straight up the gut. I am so tired of this "creativity" at the goal line.

AUsince72 11,084 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Naked bootlegs with a passing option have worked since the dawn of football. ... especially the throw-back to the TE (see '10 bammer game and Lutzie).

Maybe instead of only recruiting speed track stars AU should recruit a high-jumper for one purpose. Short yardage over the top!! BOOM!

That's what you get with an O-line that can't change the line of scrimmage. This ain't your father's Auburn team.

CAReeves2010 627 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I FORMATION. Teams have been scoring inside the 5 with the I for years. I've never understood why a coach would call a play that starts 5 yards back from the line of scrimmage when you only need 3 or less.

Eagle-1 3,821 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Line up in the damn I with Marlon Davidson at fullback! Or, just use Cox, and fake off tackle to the tailback, and hit Cox in the flat for the score. It's an old staple play out of the I, and very hard to defend. Use your damn tight end, and fullback in the passing game inside the ten yard line! If I see another shotgun handoff up the gut again in short yardage I'm going to throw up.
