Craziest “Fake Out” Moments in College Football

Senior out of Norwalk, Connecticut

Spiffy Evans back deep to receive for Boston College. It's a fake

Not a fake punt. And he's taken by Abdurrahman. And he is free

Nobody knew he had the ball. But now he has the end zone. Jamal Abdurrahman 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

Luke Ferguson on a fake punt, throws, and it's intercepted. Picked up by Kirby

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

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

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

Trickeration by Louisville, a 42-yard gain, and Jeff Robb and company call a timeout

And they are trying to put it on. Georgia Tech opting upon him

They're going to fake it and throw down the far sideline and caught

And a touchdown. The Jackets score with Nathan Cottrell. His second touch of the football this year

Wesley Harvin just dropped a tie. Nathan Cottrell is just going to stutter and go up the sideline

Runs right by the defensive back. great catch on the sideline and they brought him down late right tackled in

see him didn't pick him up Ludwig it's a fake punt he pops over the middle

complete and 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 a that's a jump shot how about this Ludwig with this isn't a throw

Watch this form. Watch the technique. That's it. What a catch. Offensively started motioning more huddling more shortening the game Trying stuff like this Truck pennies into the open field Can they catch him

10-5 touchdown. Work back. Big punt. I'll see you one and I'll raise you one

A missed tackle by Max Marsh, who is playing center field on the back end

He is the last line of defense for Kansas State. He slips

Actually, it's another player back there. Lockett. It's Lockett that's on the back end

He misses or slips, and that gave the angle to Pennix, and they just couldn't get it

That was Mark Whipple on the sidelines, the offensive coordinator for the Panthers

Pickett, 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. Can he pick it

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 it with the face guard. and goes and hits him with a cha-cha. Makes these guys understand that he can not only throw it

but he can run that bad boy too. What an electric beginning for the Panthers

Scoring on their opening drive. A career-long 58-yard run for Pickett. His fifth rushing touchdown of the season

The 20th of his career. It's a fake. Dixon has it. Dixon throws

Quick touchdown! Kendall Moore Hey, very neat

Exciting to see Coach Schaefer go for it in those circumstances Go for the win

And to see the players come through The lawyer quarterback Watch the double pass here

Allen can throw it And he does, but well over the head of Damien Offord

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 How about that I heard the stretch

Three and outs for offensive coordinator Dan Enos in Miami to start the ballgame

Headley's going to keep it on the fake. Look at the big guy from Australia take off

And Lou Headley's got a first down for Miami. It's 4-2-30, Roddy, and can run

Well, when you brought down the snap, too, I don't know if he can run, but there was so much space on the left side of that formation

that it didn't really matter if he was a burner. The fact that he had blockers out front made it really easy to get the first down

And Spires will come into punt. They'll 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 it's a fake

NC State with the first down and more. It's Pennix who takes it inside the Miami 30

Eight days before Halloween, Dave Doran into the bag of tricks for a 40-yard gain

And he pulled out the candy corn, the best in the bag. Snaps into the up back, and then look at the blocks there on the perimeter

Gets just enough of a seal, and then you turn into a lead blocker right in front of him going down

Just great recognition. and that's something to niche when you put those stakes in, you drill them all

Kick it away, but they'll fake it. Call the fake and he's got the edge

And headed to the edge is Jeremiah Love. Love inside the red zone before he's knocked out of bounds

And Notre Dame is coming out throwing haymakers. You can see this side

Look at that. You have one guy over here. Everybody loaded up to the right

Duke confused by this. They were just outmanned. And now you're giving the ball to one of your fastest playmakers there

with an ability, with love, 6'197", true freshman. You could see he was happy

And they have been much better of late and it a fake punt for Clemson We see all the time these little pop passes Look at this Bam launches it outside Bullet Great catch

Powell's getting involved, too. He makes a great play on the punt. Saving the ball in the back of the end zone

Then he comes out, plays a little receiver. They're working their third and fourth stringers right now

It's great stuff by Clemson. B.T. Potter to kick a 23-yard field goal

No, they fake it. This is Will Sweeney. Touchdown! Watch the left side, the blocking

You get a couple of blocks. Davis Allen comes around. You've got Justin Maskell out front as well

Rodwell odds a punt. And it is a fake as Rodwell takes it ahead to the 39-yard line

You've 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. 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 Butts. 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 draw

Field goal. And he'll fake it. On the move. He's going to throw for the end zone and caught

And a touchdown. touchdown it's ford again this might be the best throw by a kicker that i have ever seen it's

covered up draw the defense to you ford basically bounces off running the corner route takes the hit

pat mcafee is going crazy somewhere right now with that are you kidding me how about that
