All plays use "trickery".
One of the best plays near the goal line that Bama ran to beat AU in 2009 was the pass to a FB off play action. We bit, the "trickery" worked.
In 2013, when Bama had 4th and 1, I really thought they would play action. They chose to run up the middle. If I had AJ as my QB I would put the game in his hands, but they made a different choice.
What Gus does is run plays that have several option off the same look. He really prefers to run the ball if there are 6 or less in the box. Gus also likes to go fast if we are near hash with a first down. Most of his pass plays are play action.
At the end of the day, you still have to have athletes execute whatever the play is, whatever the system is, and understand the terminology and the reads

This, and while I hate to see South Carolina and Georgia playing against it in the same year, I do love watching it.
I think the only way to stop it is with two fast defensive ends and good spur linebacker with about 4.6 speed. Kind of the way Julius Peppers shut down Clemson's offense with Dantzler.
