I think UF is up to 7 used against us that resulted in exactly one win from a team that used them.

Not bad.

ETA: I only counted SEC teams FTR.

We've botched enough plays to help our opponents out that they don't need to

Ours worked. It's just our defense collectively shite themselves at the same time and allowed an 80 yard TD on 4th and 14.

But that's just the same play over and over. I'm not sure we can count it for more than one.

I'm talking variety of plays I guess.

Teams tend to run trick plays against aggressive, undisciplined defenses. Heck our walk on qb caught a touchdown passs and had us in the game with 2 minutes to play as bad as we are this year, so maybe we should have ran one or two more. Pretty sure you guys will be seeing more of them until you learn to stop them.

That Triple Lindy looking thing attempted by MSU Saturday night was the most ridiculous ever.

We used two that both worked. Shame that our coaching staff and defense decided to choke on massive dick in the 4th quarter.

For us, I honestly don't think it's that many, but N Texas went for a fake punt and failed on Saturday. Ran a route to the flat on 4th and 13 and only picked up about 4

The trick plays were what kept UF from skull dragging UT. They did indeed work and helped to keep UT in the game.

Our aggressive style of defense has left us open to some but trick plays called at the right time. Give credit to coaches making those calls. Luckily only one has been a game changer that has cost us a game.
With a defense like ours you have to take the bad with the good. Go Gators.

I forgot about the SC one. We are up to 7 used and 1 resulting win.

It is flattering that teams are having to resort to them to keep it close these days.

Mac doin' work on SEC OCs.

No it didn't but keep telling yourself that. It was just funny to see. You lose with the FG as well.

If you don't count Auburn I believe its around 9.

If you count Auburn it's closer to 70.
