The greatest 4th down play I have ever seen in my 30+ years watching football was pulled off by Iowa today.
- It's 4th and Goal from the PSU 10 after an incompletion
- The Offense goes off the field and the "Kicking Team" comes on the field*
- Iowa then lines the Kicker up wide and has the "Holder" in shotgun
- He gets the snap, veers right, and throws to..
- A walk-on DT playing TE, who blocked at the snap, and...
- Made an awesome over the head catch for a TD
* My guess is it was the second team offense with the Kicker. Hard to know what the actual personnel was, but I doubt the regular kicking team would have bee running a regular offensive play.
Whatever the case, how brilliant is it to run the offense off the field, to get the kick block team on the field, and then run a play against it, with probably the second team offense? LOVED IT!
