I am a big fan of what might be called antique football. I love the single wing and the Notre Dame box. At any rate, I saw a tape a couple of years ago of a team that was shifting from an under the center formation to a direct snap single wing. Now I know the rule about being set for one second and not simulating the snap and all that but this question goes to the practical side of things. I noticed on the tape that as the game progressed the team was set for less and less time before the snap. The officials seemed to get into the frantic flow of the game and it looked like the offense was getting away with murder. It further looked like the officials were rushing to put the ball in play, something that the offense wanted. At any rate, I guess my question is the following: Do you guys ever get caught up in the flow of the game and find yourself putting the ball in play faster and faster as the game progresses?
