It's called the swinging gate, and they'd BETTER line up with the linemen, and not the ball, or the snapper would either snap it quickly to QB who throws it to a back behind the rest of the line (who often scores), or the snapper snaps it diagonally (legal in FED?) to a back behind the rest of the line. And they'd better not forget to keep 2 or 3 players home with the ball, or they snap it and the QB goes in untouched.

Used most often on XP, but I've seen it occasionally on other plays, especially after a timeout.
