I figured someone would beat me to it. But I'll give an example.


Bama knew about Clemson's tendency to leave an outside gap at the frontline on kickoffs. They noticed it when watching film. When the time as right, and when they saw the opportunity, they pounced on it. Most other teams didn't consider an inside kick like that, even though it had been there all season.
