Central Michigan vs Western Michigan – 2:32 4Q

The Chippewas offense is looking to pull within a single possession here, so they pull a tricky shift off the call sheet to throw at the Bronco defense.

The tight end is going to start the play lined up as the left tackle, and the actual left tackle will shift out to the slot and stay covered by the X so he’s ineligible.

The tailback moves to the backfield, and then the H-Back comes in motion from left to right just before the snap to protect that right side edge and simulate a true sprint out option.

All this eye candy exists for the sole purpose of making the defense overcompensate to the right side, and totally forget about the tight end, who’s now the end man on the left and eligible. The left tackle will even run a little smoke screen route, running backward of course, to attract more attention.

The QB turns and throws the football back toward the left side where the tight end is waiting, and CMU has two points.
