My wife and I attended that USC game. Talk about hostile territory. We came in to the game No.2 in the nation, and I had to put up wth these inbreds scoffing at us, I gave it back believe me. We won ugly, and dropped in the polls. But that onside kick was like cool mountain springwater over my head while I stood in the desolation that is Columbia. Still, gotta hope SC kicks butt on Georgia, Tenn., and Florida. It would be crazy to hope otherwise. War Eagle!

Oh, ya ...to address the question....Tubby can't help himself.

Excerpts from the Article

"I've seen a lot more imagination in play calling and special teams and change-momentum plays," said Auburn's Tommy Tuberville, who earned the nickname "Riverboat Gambler" for his willingness to roll the dice. "A lot more -- even in the NFL. People are doing things to give them an edge. I think that has to do with parity, teams being equal. You're looking for an edge that can win the game."

Sept. 28, 2006: Auburn 24, South Carolina 17. The favored Tigers begin the second half with a grinding, 17-play field goal drive for a 17-10 lead -- then turn right around and try an onside kick. Auburn recovers, keeps the ball the entirety of the third quarter and into the fourth, and scores against an exhausted defense for an insurmountable 24-10 advantage.

That call was certainly par for the course with Tuberville, but it also reflected a trick-play reality: Sometimes you just can't stop the other team and need to try something extraordinary.

"I told our team at halftime, 'I've seen enough of their quarterback,'" Tuberville recalled from that South Carolina game. "'I don't want to see him out there again. If we score, we're going to onside it.'"

i like trick plays alot

i just hope we dont try and pull any nonsense like we did on the first drive of the Arky game last year. That drive pretty much sealed the deal in my eye.

The fake punt vs WSU last season was pretty insane imo.
