Coach trailing by 1 with little time left takes defense off the field to allow other team to score and then get the ball back down 8. But when other team stands at the 1 yard line defense has to run back on to the field and make them score.

 

Then down 8 the team does score and.....................

I'm glad video was included. I was having a hard time wrapping my head around that one! Insane!

The most "Bush League" move I have ever seen! Hillbillies coaching football?!

I don't follow. What was "bush league?"

So I guess letting them run out the clock would have been a better option? I thought it was brilliant, how else to they get the ball back with a chance to score? Nothing "bush league" about it. :no:

I am confused? He needed the ball back and had he let them run it out he would have lost. It almost worked for him.

Not sure why the offense didn't mill about and just jog down to about the 1 and take a knee.

Bush league? That was brilliant. There was nothing dirty about it.

What they should have done was gained enough for a first down, then just stood there. It wasn't smart of the other coach to go all the way to the 1-yard line.

I would prefer to have additional cushion behind me in the event of something bad happening but you're right that the one yard line was too close. Some lousy blocking by those surrounding the ball carrier, should have been more alert.
