This past weekend Bethel (Kan.) College played Sterling College in an absolute epic. O.K., so the game wasn’t really competitive, the athletes were second rate, and half the people in the stands were playing on their i-phones, but still, there was one play really worth talking about. Up 20-0 in their coaches last game, Bethel College went for it all, with a behind the back granny throw… (No audio)

This kind of razzle-dazzle shit doesn’t get pulled off in sandlot leagues, let alone in competitive football games, but it’s clearly something they’ve practiced and thought could be effective. Call me conservative but I think this is as “tricky” as you need to get at the goal line, but no mater what you think of the play, the result was a score… Maybe I should forward this to coach Mangini.
