offensive players who are not wearing an ineligible number (50-79) are eligible receivers if they meet one of the following three criteria:
Player is at either end of the group of players on the line of scrimmage (usually the split end and tight end)
This was from wiki:
If Deehan wasn't covered by another player and was the end person on the right side (even though he snapped the ball), I guess that means he's eligible. I didn't know that.
Wasn't there someone to his right and to his left? Maybe the guy on the right was not considered on the LOS. You have to have at least 5 or 6 on the LOS to run a play, right?
Where can I see this play? I don't think they caught it on the tube.

This may be the only time I do this in 2010... but nice job by Riddle. That was a creative play design and it worked.
How'd that taste coming out of your mouth? just reading it made me throw up in my mouth a little.

It worked...get over it.
It was aweird time to call for going for two, stupid? I dunno. I had a HS coach I played for who went for two every time, without fail, after the first TD. It didn't matter if the first TD came in the first minute of the first Q or late in the fourth. We OL just knew, we were going for it, and we were running it. I can't remember a time it didn't work, eventually you get used to the score progression of 8, 15, 22 etc.
It was Saban wasn't it? No? Not Saban? Ummmmm, was it Shanahan? No, not Shanny either? What do you mean he never advanced above the HS level of coaching football. That seems strange to me.
no- it freaking Playstation football....
stupid coaching...that extra point did CU NO GOOD .... dumb, dumb time in the game to go for 2
It was a fine call. Georgia wasn't even close to stopping it.
Back to the original question--did CU line up in a traditional formation and then shift to the unbalanced line? FSN didn't show the whole play. Anyone who was at Folsom recall?
I remember that Slick did the same thing against a ranked A&M team in Folsom years ago. A&M was forced to call a timeout after the shift. Slick then kicked the extra point. Slick, being who he is, said that he didn't even have a play to run out of the formation, but later conceded that they had several plays they could have run.
I assume most coaches call that play to get the other team to burn a TO, but if they don't you might as well run the play on the assumption that the defense has no idea how to defend it.

Lined up in the "Swinging Gate" Formation from the start.
