two plays that have been very successful for OU in this decade and yet two plays you have not seen in years.

AD ran all over Texas with the misdirection his freshman year and I still see teams using the shovel pass with great success.

We don't do misdirection. We impose our will on the defense.

It's a great way to win against outmanned teams.
