**Sigh**
I invite you to re-read my post as both of your concerns are dealt with.
With the U up on the line, one of the back guys fills the normal spot in the pit to cover the line play as usual. If the play turns out to be a pass (<10% of the time), he simply backpedals to cover our MASSIVE 20 yard end zone in conjunction with the wingman if it happens to go deep.
I didn’t see the play in the Rutgers game you speak of, but it sounds like the U was simply out of position to make the TD call, regardless of the applied mechanic. As I pointed out, in the three down method, if the U gets run over or the play goes wide, he doesn’t make the call…it’s that simple.
I have to admit I’m suprised at the repeated condemnation of our coverage of goal line plays. I don’t believe any of my fellow Canucks have suggested it’s better or worse than the way you do it in four down ball…it’s just different…and it works for us (and it might just work for you if you gave it a shot).
Given few of you guys south of the 49th have even see the mechanic occur, much less have actually worked it, I’m at a loss to explain as to how you could be so convinced it’s unworkable.
