A lot missing here. How about that huge comeback of WMU broncos over UT? Also WMU Broncos 2 trick plays against Purdue in the Motor City bowl. How about CMU trick play to upset OK State? Also Boise State trick play in a bowl game to beat OK
That was the game that made me fall in love with college football. Boise had no business winning that game on paper, and they pulled out all the stops to stun Goliath.
@@joshuawatts5378 They included all three of BSU's trick plays, as they should have. Like you said, they pulled every trick they had in the bag, and it was enough to win a game that nobody gave them ANY chance of winning.
No one ever expects the Flea Flicker. Its such an random play that you often only see in college ball, and that's what keeps things interesting. Freaking love it.
Bear Bryant caused a rule change in college football by using tear-away jerseys with an extra one carried in the player's pants. If his jersey gets destroyed by an attempted tackle during the play, he can pull out the extra and put it on before the next snap and never miss a play. The rules now require the player to be out for a play or his team call timeout if a jersey gets destroyed.
Kickers scoring touchdowns are my favorite trick plays. It's always fun watching a player that only ever kicks the ball to show their true athleticism every now and again.
I hate trick plays from the kneeling formation. That’s the one time you shouldn’t abuse it. Or next time, don’t complain if they destroy your qb just in case
I'll never forget that Boise St v Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl. That was before it was a little more common that G5 schools beat Power 5 teams in BCS Bowls. It was not common at all then, and this was what helped make Boise St into what they are today. I remember being in middle school and having to stay up late to watch it, and thinking how it was so cool that Ian Johnson proposed to a cheerleader after the game 😂😂
lol, 1:45, they're circling the guy and being like "He screwed up" - dude wasn't actually fooled at all, he just took a solid block and couldn't quite get off it. The guy who was supposed to be following the receiver goes off-screen but when he comes back on it doesn't look like he's in the right place.
Not an American but I do enjoy American football to me it’s like a game of chess . I watch a fair bit of it and it seems to me you do not see as many trick plays in the NFL as you do in college football. I may be wrong lol . I live in Australia we have Rugby league here where we play with a similar shaped ball each team in possession gets a number of tackles or as you say plays before kicking it away but we cannot throw it forward .
Boston College vs Villanova was the one that got me bad (as well as the cameraman) these are some great trick plays. This is why I love college football, you don't see plays like this in the NFL
This restores my Faith in American Football ! Some of the lateral plays going down field are a little hard to get used to, as I think it just reminds me of maybe how European rugby is played ? Still Good stuff ! 🖐️ 🤚 🏈 😉 🏈
This video is advertised as being less than 18 minutes, but with all the time I spent rewatching and analyzing nearly every play it turned into a 2 hour project.
I’d like to see an offensive lineman throw a pass. I have never seen it happen, and with the quarterback being an eligible receiver (has to be at least 1 yard behind the center in the NFL), if he were to pitch it to a lineman, then such a play would give the lineman 6 eligible receivers to throw to.
The fair catch guy has guts to try that. Could’ve been tee’d off on. Maybe that can only be attempted bc it’s not the 80’s-90’s anymore when defenders could straight destroy you.
"The Train" was a part of the "trickeration" method of rebuilding a team... then my school (Michigan) finally got some players who could win in the B1G.
man, my only exposure to american football is eyeshield 21 manga, its really amazing that the trick play on the manga really is something to find in the real game.
A lot missing here. How about that huge comeback of WMU broncos over UT? Also WMU Broncos 2 trick plays against Purdue in the Motor City bowl. How about CMU trick play to upset OK State? Also Boise State trick play in a bowl game to beat OK
@@JamesBond-lb3yr I don't know. What is the success rate of trick plays in college football? You seem to be moving the goal posts a bit. Your statement was not that the success rate was higher in college, but that you don't see those trick plays in the NFL. Which is false.
Florida literally did the Philly Special in this video before it was the Philly Special. So ya, they do run trick plays in the NFL and sometimes those trick plays might help you win a Super Bowl.
@@JamesBond-lb3yr Lower, which is why you don't see them as often. Most of these only work because of blown coverage. As you get more disciplined and learn to stay on your man, no matter what, many of these "wide open" receivers downfield wouldn't be wide open. Yes, they try these in the NFL. No, not as often.
Ol Carey Spear aka "Murderleg". That man could hit harder than some defensive players. I remember when he demolished Cordarrelle Patterson on a kickoff
This _really_ represents why I came to love football *so much*: while it may seem like "just" a rough sports there's actually _a lot_ of strategy involved as well; something which many of my friends totally manage to overlook (I'm from the Netherlands btw, football isn't really a thing here).
2:38 is definitely a flag that the ref chose to ignore. Look at the motion man at the bottom of the screen. You can not runs towards the line of scrimmage like that lol! This ain’t arena football!
@@RoyalMela you either have to be set on the ball or motion away from line of scrimmage (only for player off the ball) players on the ball can’t motion period
At 11:26, when the dude ran, but then threw the ball, I wonder if he got flagged for going past the line of scrimmage. It really looked like he went beyond the line with his foot.
When a guy gives himself up like that fair catch play that should just be considered a dead ball. It doesn't make sense because if after a slight pause the defensive player blows him up they're definitely going to call a penalty. The play was f****** over LOL
Yeah, and taking advantage of customs for player safety is pretty sleazy. Hope he got blasted the next time he fielded a punt, whether he fair catches or not.
As a Razorback fan, I thought it was a BS call, and the no-whistle tells me they were likely informed of it ahead of time. Either way, it worked, and it didn't make a difference in the game, because we got ROLLED that day.
On top of that, whether he waved his hands or not the initial pause could easily be considered giving himself up. That happens dozens of times a year both in the NFL and the ncaa. I can assure you that had the defender blown him up they would have called a personal foul and said that the return man gave himself up

you know its a good trick play when the cameraman gets confused
I was literally about to type it word for word how u did
How about the announcers missing it and they're not watching the monitor because they're watching it live.
so true
Unless you’re watching on the Pac-12 network. Most simple play action plays confuse the camera operator.
Could say that better
Every time I think of college trick plays Boise will always be first to come to mind, so iconic
That whole sequence at the end of the OU game was a primer on perfectly executed deception. Just a master act, so good.
@@SpreadEagle6 only topped by the fox announcer ruining the proposal at the end. how is this not a movie yet?
One of the greatest games ever played at any level. And no one, but NO ONE, ever ran the Statue of Liberty as well as BSU did that night.
That was the game that made me fall in love with college football. Boise had no business winning that game on paper, and they pulled out all the stops to stun Goliath.

What a fun compilation! Nice work, as usual.
The Boise State 2 point conversion also ended with Ian Johnson proposing to his girl friend. That was an amazing game
Boise St. defeating Oklahoma with trick plays, was one of the most incredible games I ever saw. Big upset and a big pay day for me. 😁🇺🇸
That run of plays by Boise St is Masterclass.
NGL that first clip where Memphis helped the opposing team up and gave him the head tap for a good play. Big smiles haha
I don't comment a lot but I watch everyone of your exciting videos. Thnx for making them.
So much fun seeing plays that Bear Bryant ran in the sixties and Bobby Bowden ran in the eighties... still being run successfully.
I can't believe you don't have the Puntrooski in here. Clemson FSU kn 1988. Top 5 all time.

@@MRCATL3 Uh... not my video. If I did this one, Puntrooski and the Foola from Pascagoula would definitely be included.
This is why I like college football they aren’t afraid to try something different
Hopefully they add these trick plays in ncaa 25
Kickers scoring touchdowns are my favorite trick plays. It's always fun watching a player that only ever kicks the ball to show their true athleticism every now and again.
16:32 every lineman’s dream 😂
Like an absolute boss.
8:53 is maybe one of the most genius trick plays I have ever seen
Good videos bro! Keep up the grind brotha!
The statue of Liberty. Awesome name and awesome play
What a fun compilation! Nice work, as usual.. 16:32 every lineman’s dream .
I hate trick plays from the kneeling formation. That’s the one time you shouldn’t abuse it. Or next time, don’t complain if they destroy your qb just in case
The Boise State/Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl was one of the best college football games of all time.
those were great!! thanks for posting!
I love these types of vids
BSU will always be the Legend of trick plays.

Some of these trick plays are savage and I like it

Still Good stuff !
🖐️ 🤚
🏈 😉 🏈
thanx..enjoyed that
As a BSU fan, I LOVE trick plays.
I love it when they trick the camera man in the process! 🤪🤪🤪
That first highlight was such an original and unique idea
The no fair catch play was ballsy.
At 12:00 that was a regular play-action, so how is that a trick play? But I loved this video. Awesome to see trickery 😬
1:23 NDSU mentioned
Let’s goooooo best video ever
What a fun compilation! Nice work, as usual.. That run of plays by Boise St is Masterclass..
One of the great allures to College football is the potential trick play. I love it.
You know the play is good when it fools the cameraman
Isn't 11:57 just a play-action pass? Where's the "trick"?
Not showing 2001 Nebraska or the 1983 "Fumblerooski" is just an injustice.
i must say, i wasn't expecting to click on a highlight reel video and see my school as the very first one lol
Love your videos but Michigan lining up in a straight line before eventually breaking into formation and running a normal play is not a trick play.
FSU shut that down when they played Michigan in the 2017 Orange Bowl.
Agreed🤝
Facts
Not even a clever play
It's a formation that fools no one on the defense because they just line up in a regular formation.
This video is advertised as being less than 18 minutes, but with all the time I spent rewatching and analyzing nearly every play it turned into a 2 hour project.
Nice comp! I like how US networks can’t follow the path of a foot-long football, but Canadian cameramen never lose sight of a 4-inch hockey puck 😂😂
the field is 10x bigger
Haha football bad hockey good amirite ya ole poutine eh sorry lookin ass
Where's the 75-yard TD from last year's B1G title game?🤔
Its such an random play that you often only see in college ball, and that's what keeps things interesting. Freaking love it.
did I miss fumblerooski? One of the best plays ever!
I’d like to see an offensive lineman throw a pass. I have never seen it happen, and with the quarterback being an eligible receiver (has to be at least 1 yard behind the center in the NFL), if he were to pitch it to a lineman, then such a play would give the lineman 6 eligible receivers to throw to.
On that run by the LSU punter, if I were Florida, I would’ve fired the special teams coordinator.
@@laprankster3264 Agreed. That just can't happen. It actually got called back for taunting, but still.
The fair catch guy has guts to try that. Could’ve been tee’d off on.
Maybe that can only be attempted bc it’s not the 80’s-90’s anymore when defenders could straight destroy you.
What fair catch? It was just a punt return.
10:02 was the best one, wide open
I was at that game. That ball was caught by the then would be future nfl star and Superbowl champ Demaryius Thomas (RIP)
14:25 they got a lineman as a kicker throwing bombs lol
My team was in here but on the good end of a play. Bless.
Great video, but a large channel like this shouldn't need to use a click bait thumbnail.
😂what a great catch 3:24
"The Train" was a part of the "trickeration" method of rebuilding a team... then my school (Michigan) finally got some players who could win in the B1G.
those are some nice plays
Few better feelings in sports than getting coach hype over your hustle play
6:31 'no one within 5 yards of him,' except the missed tackle behind the line of scrimage.
You know it is a great play when even the cameraman can't keep track of the ball!!!
man, my only exposure to american football is eyeshield 21 manga, its really amazing that the trick play on the manga really is something to find in the real game.

Very nice li
There's a reason we only see those trick plays in College. In the NFL 95% of those plays, the ball carrier would get blasted.
And yet, statue of liberty, fumblerooskie, double reverse, and countless other trick plays have worked in the NFL.
@@bauerj3398 Yes. What's the success rate?

The one at 6:35 is to Travis kelce yes Travis kelce went to UC just like dev rider and sauce
Loved! My boyfriend actually listened to me after watching this on my forehead
3:33 this is called hide the midget 😂😂😂
Crazy how easy it is to tell which announcers wish they were somewhere else
Ol Carey Spear aka "Murderleg". That man could hit harder than some defensive players. I remember when he demolished Cordarrelle Patterson on a kickoff
That north Texas player has balls of steel for risking that
Nice one 😉
great trick plays
BSU will always be the king of trick plays after the tostitos fiesta bowl
Good to see the Fumblerooski again
I love Philly Special

@@RoyalMela you either have to be set on the ball or motion away from line of scrimmage (only for player off the ball) players on the ball can’t motion period
boy travis kelce just loves trick plays
12:01 regular play action pass to the 1 is "crazy" trick play? Guess that is all Michigan has in creativity.
TD from Jalen Hurts to Deshaun Hand (Alabama vs Clemson 2018 Semifinal)
Thrilled that Justin Hurbert made the highlight reel. Go Ducks!!
As did Travis Kelce. Go Chiefs.
That Division III play was pretty amazing, but Cal. Stanford wi s because laterals AND band involvement
🤯my new emoji for this vid
Nothing like watching a tackle running it in.
what a video
Seeing these trick plays makes me feel bad for the defence cos they’re defenceless against it 😂 No pun intended
At 11:26, when the dude ran, but then threw the ball, I wonder if he got flagged for going past the line of scrimmage. It really looked like he went beyond the line with his foot.

True something small like a hand on or something to stop it but till then the play should be live.
Agreed. Furthermore, at 0:51, the receiver made a little hand gesture before catching the ball that almost looked like a fair-catch signal.
It is nowadays specially written in the rules, that if you clearly give yourself up, play is called dead there.
@@RoyalMela no it isn't, at least not in the NCAA rules
0:40 that is just genius
Damn bro, no 1984 Fumblerooski?!!?!
or the FSU-Clemson puntrooskie, also a no show
Which Kelce were they talking about, Jason or Travis???
0:51 He waves his hand a couple of times, just not high over his head. That's a dicey (non)-call by the refs.
Yeah, and taking advantage of customs for player safety is pretty sleazy. Hope he got blasted the next time he fielded a punt, whether he fair catches or not.
As a Razorback fan, I thought it was a BS call, and the no-whistle tells me they were likely informed of it ahead of time. Either way, it worked, and it didn't make a difference in the game, because we got ROLLED that day.

@@stephenhenley7452 - Yeah, yes he did. Watch the video and pay attention to his left hand. Whoops.
On top of that, whether he waved his hands or not the initial pause could easily be considered giving himself up. That happens dozens of times a year both in the NFL and the ncaa. I can assure you that had the defender blown him up they would have called a personal foul and said that the return man gave himself up
i dont know why they dont use more of these plays. they work
I dont understand that train formation that was shown a few times cuz they just go right back to a normal formation so whats the point?
Does not give defense time to call their play and might lead into a confusion and someone gets wide open.
