I have only ever seen that play work once. During a 2001 Virginia-Georgia Tech game and UVa pulled out the win with a Billy McMullen to Alvin Pearman hook-and-lateral. That was sweet. I was actually in the coaches box for the game and heard Bill Musgrave call it and thought, "that play never works." And then it did.

I'd say they did not have much of a chance at that point, but then Brett Favre had to go and complete that pass yesterday and make the impossible seem possible. Zorn really must hate Jason Campbell, he won't even let the guy go down swinging. Man, now you really have me hating that play call .... just another thing to be pissed at Zorn about and I hadn't even thought of that one until you mentioned it. Thanks a lot!
