Vince from ShamWOW Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 The Gambler...does it work, no? Sounds like a gamble to me... I like it. But still the best I've heard is The Maize. Oh....and I've heard them all. I could live with The Maize...has a nice old school sound to it. That's one of things I thought of when I heard it. However I also took into consideration the other ways Maize - Maze are spelled and the different meanings the two words have: Maze - a confusing network of intercommunicating paths or passages Maize - (one definition) wild corn. Der Veiner Schliger I like because of the confusion where the "dog" will land. If you've ever seen him aim and shoot, you've seen the "dog" doesn't always land where he aims. (Confusion).

mmmtodd Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 wonder what the announcers will call it when alabama runs it in the national championship game that being said, whatever watson wants to call it is fine with me. just as long as i dont have to see it next year. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 What?! Joker's been awesome. Loved it when Lucky ran it, and now Burkhead is a successor. As a wrinkle? Quote Link to comment
mmmtodd Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 sure, as a wrinkle i guess. i dunno, i just get really leery when people start flashing brights lights about how its oh so genius, and oh rex threw for 600 yards as a sophomore in high school so he could totally throw out of it...and on and on and on...it scares me. i want to be able to call our line the "pipeline" again, and watch what rex can do behind that, before i get all worked up about some gimmick offense. i want a four wheel drive, crew cab diesel pickup truck of an offense. not some fancy showcar thats scared to get off the trailer.

We ran into that guy at a grocery store opening. If you made the beanbag in the hole you got a free hot dog or shirt or whatever. I at least hit the plywood cutout target, but a lot of folks even missed that. Quote Link to comment

Vince from ShamWOW Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 The "Jesus Christ please give us a damn touchdown" formation. That's the third best so far. Nice work. Quote Link to comment
Army Husker Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I could care less what they call it...if it's as successful as our option has been this year (seems to be more successful), throw it in there next year, why not? Quote Link to comment

bhamHusker Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 It would be perfectly fine with me if the entire college football watching world just called it "The Wildcat" no matter who runs it or where. As others far more astute than I have pointed out, every f'ing school doesn't get a special name for when they line up in the shotgun, under center or virtually any other formation. This obsession with having a unique cutesy name for every team in the country that runs this old gimmick play is getting old. "Trickeration" old. Quote Link to comment

This obsession with having a unique cutesy name for every team in the country that runs this old gimmick play is getting old. "Trickeration" old. No....every other school has a tendancy to follow NU. As an example...... 1. Husker Nation was invented in Nebraska. How every team as their Nation 2. Zach Wiegert invented the holding 4 fingers at the beginning of the 4th quarter. Now, every team does it. These are just two examples of where NU labeled something and some other team put their name to it. Next somebody will call a play "they came up with" the Fumblerooski". No, we are NU, and will label something and let others follow. Too bad NU doesn't patient these things. Quote Link to comment
Captain K Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Watson calls it the Joker. That's funny. That is just one letter different from what I call the rest of his offense. Quote Link to comment
