WTF? Yale fakes a punt on 4th and 22 from its 26 yd line up 10-7, 2 min to go in 4th

Loses the game 14-10..

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP)—Yale's first-year coach Tom Williams says he's ready to take responsibility for the Bulldogs' eighth loss in the last nine games to rival Harvard.

Yale was ahead 10-7 Saturday with just 2:25 left when it failed to convert a fake punt on fourth-and-22 from its 26, and wound up losing 14-10.

"The whole idea was to keep our foot on the pedal, and not play scared," said Williams in trying to explain the call. "If anyone is looking for somebody to blame, blame this guy right here."

What an ass.. I mean what the hell, why ever punt then? Not playing scared? More like lets play stupid...

Talkins should send in his resume to Yale. :rofl:


Could you imagine if Talkins ever did that at CU and what Allbuffs threads would look like if he pulled a stunt like that.. :lol:

Haha, I went to go look at his bio on the Yale athletics site, figuring he went to some school that was clearly inferior so I could make fun of him with a "Well, he DID go to _____ State" but he has a BA and MA from Stanford... so I don't know what the hell he was thinking.

GWB sez: He'd fit right in at Yale.

Obviously the coach isn't an alum.

Here's the video of the play..

Quite possibly the dumbest play I have ever seen by a coach.. Not even Talkins could top this..

He must have watched this highlight one too many times, but forgot he didn't have an NFL punter on his team.

How it SHOULD be done.

:wow:

If it was 4th and 3 it might be somewhat excusable, but 4th and 22??? Plus, it's not like their defense had been gashed all day long, they had only given up 7 points before the fake.

Thats ridiculous, might as well just run a play if you are gonna be that stupid.
