Craziest "Trick Plays" in College Football History

A trick play

Nobody knew he had the ball, but now he has the end zone! I thought I've seen it all, I've never seen that

87 yards per contest. Nathan Peterman, back the other way to a lineman, Brian O'Neal

Number 70, down the sideline, and O'Neal goes to the end zone for Pitt

That looks like a play maybe Johnny Majors would have designed right there

How about the big fella, Brian O'Neal, left side. He's the edge man on the line of scrimmage, becomes an eligible receiver

This is what you call the oh-shuck scream, and it's the big fella that's going to shove it in the end zone

Senior out of Norwalk, Connecticut. Spiffy Evans back deep to receive for Boston College

It's a fake. Not a fake punt. That is taken by Abdur Rahman, and he is free

Nobody knew he had the ball, but now he has the end zone. Jamal Abdur Rahman from 47 yards and a fake punt touchdown to get things started in 2013 for Villanova

And the coaches told us about this play potentially coming sometime early in the game

They talked about snapping to the front man. If you see the first guy gets the snap, puts it on the ground

and now he's going to slip off to the left side and then skate his way down to the field

No one within five yards of him on this run. That was Mark Whipple on the sidelines

The offensive coordinator for the Panthers. Pick it. A very good runner

Don't sleep on those legs. Oh, he faked the slide. Sauce time

Pickett. Did that work? Touchdown, Pitt. Oh, my goodness

Did you see that? Oh, I can't wait to show you that replay. Kenny Pickett

We talked about it earlier in the broadcast. His legs are very underappreciated

But right here, he gets out, he gets out in a hurry. And then what's he do

He hits him with the fake slide and goes and hits him with the cha-cha. Makes these guys understand that he can not only throw it, but he can run that bad boy, too

He's like, oh, I'm going to slide. No, gotcha. Oh, my Lord

Nick Anderson's like, I don't know if I've ever seen that before. Two games. 15 red zone possessions and 10 touchdowns

Traitor's going to walk in. Perfect fake and a Syracuse touchdown. Everybody goes with the running back

and there's no contain on the outside here for the quarterback. They still don't know that he has the ball

One first down will end this game, as Purdue has the two timeouts left

and LeQuint Allen. No, it's Garrett Schrader. How far will he go

I don think he going to try to score No he go down inside the 40 Schrader will add and pad to his stats That puts him nearly 200 yards He has 191 rushing yards today and he just sealed the game

Watch the fake again. Hide the ball and let his eyes follow the back

I mean, he waited a long time on that one and could have easily scored a touchdown

Purdue, second charge timeout. Timeout will be 30 seconds. Rodwell odds upon and it is a fake as Rodwell takes it ahead to the 39 yard line

You got to roll the dice sometimes Brock. First down Georgia Tech

And Mr. Rodwell you may want to get your pads down at contact. But a well executed play with the exact look they wanted to to put that offense back on the field

It was worth the pain. They go empty. on first down the whole weird play offensive lineman drops down and now they got a convoy

and this is going to be a touchdown what a play call by campbell you're going to see that on

sports center top 10 not top 10 what a play that was great design guys don't even know what they're

doing i thought i've seen it all i've never seen that at any level of football watch these

offensive linemen here just you know take a little break just kidding we're going to throw

throw it for a house call to our quarterback. You've never seen this before

You might not see it again. And again, great job by all the offensive linemen selling it

21 with the beautiful ball to his quarterback. And he's just taking a little trot into the end zone

Great job by the Camels. Mason Donaldson with a touchdown pass caught by the quarterback, Williams

Passer, they're having to defend the run. They give it back to Finley

Open man at the 10. A twisting attempt and catch. Auten Reif made the grab going to the turf

And Tommy gets caught by the turf monster. Gets him. He's wide open

It's a walk-in touchdown. Auten Reif stumbles and makes a circus catch

How about Gillaspie? Does he get the ball out of his hands before his knee touched the ground

What's the right knee of Gillaspie? And is the ball out of his hands before

Yeah, the ball's gone before the knee comes down. And, boy, it was close

Wow. Pickett throws it back. It's the offensive lineman Bryce Hargrove into the end zone

Make it. That's Stefano Millen. Stefano Millen into the end zone for Pittsburgh

The left tackle. They throw it back to him, something they did many times with Brian O over the last several years Luke Ferguson on a fake punt throws and it intercepted Picked up by Kirby

Watch him just slide in, slide in, and then he gets underneath. Just a poorly thrown ball

This is over Kirby's head. It's an easy conversion, and Arkansas State continues this drive

And it looks like they're going to kneel it. Or not! A trick play to Jordan

He's got room to run and taken down inside the 35-yard line

Trick-o-ration by Louisville. 42-yard gain, and Jeff Robb and company call a timeout

and they are trying to put it on Boston College here. Yeah, right there we see Jack Plummer take the snap

and hand it off to Jawar Jordan. You know, I was saying take a knee, George, because I wanted to keep the momentum and keep the confidence

But if you have a trick play like that to go get 42, why not

Coleman in motion. Plummer with time, clean pocket. Fires well down the field

He's got a man. It's Thrash. Touchdown, Jamari Thrash. We were just talking about how they hadn't gone to him for a big play

And you see it right there. They dial it up. A 42-yard pitch and catch from Plummer to Thrash for a touchdown

Goal. Through the legs of Sharp. He's got it. Sharp dives. Touchdown, Virginia

I love it. A little bit of a Statue of Liberty play, right? Benker rolls out, puts it underneath

Chris Sharp grabs it, and then great explosion on the run and the effort to get it in the end zone

The leading tackler, very sure tackler, and in space they wanted that matchup

It's a fake. Poole taken off with it. And he stopped up short at the 49-yard line

That wasn't close. In his vision here as he rolls, what he sees is quite an alleyway

The problem is what he doesn't see is the leading tackler, Cendarius Bryant, unblocked

With six straight scoreless drives, they are three touchdowns thus far. They have three touchdowns thus far

And Blubber loses the football. Did it go out of bounds? I think that one got out of bounds

They'll say they kept it, yeah. I think that one went out of bounds right there And you can see when you got that big body frame And Spires will come into punt They fake it Going downfield for Allen who makes the catch

A gambler here in the final minute plus of the first half

A pump fake from the punter. As we see a player Garrett Williams went down hard

They brought him down late right tackled in Sam didn't pick him up Ludwig. It's a fake punt. He pops over the middle complete

Terrell Edmonds has a first down. We thought there might be some gadget plays in there for the Hokies

They desperately needed a spark a gadget. That's it. That's a jump shot

How about this? Ludwig with this season of throwing. Watch this form

Watch the technique. That's it. What a catch. And this is about Bronco Mendenhall's comfort zone in terms of trying kicks

This is 29 yards. Oh, and now the Cavaliers are going to swing it to the left side

and they're going to throw for the tight end. Touchdown for Evan Bucks. There is a flag on the play

Connor Brewer, the backup quarterback, made the throw to Evan Butts. There is no foul on the play

Touchdown. Water bucket, as they call it. So many times you see this before they come back in to kick it

They reverse it a little bit. Boom. There's, you're going to see Butts

He just delays, throws it back there. Everybody forgets about him as they go trying to make what they think is a stop

Running the football behind that offensive line. Heck of a play drawn up

Who's one for two on his early career having him look at a tighter angle. I like this

Because the distance doesn't make any difference. It's all angle and they fake it. Touchdown, Notre Dame

Holy cow. So you don't take the penalty. And then it sets up

What an excellent job by Deshaun Kaiser with the fake. The forward

It's actually a pass for a touchdown now. How about that for Kaiser his first touchdown pass in college comes from a forward flip

Watch double pass here Allen can throw it and he does but well over there

But he's only 6'6". He'd have to be 9'6 in order to catch that one

Wait a second. Watch what Gary Schrader does in this play What
