It was a fumbled ordsprog
 It was a fumbled snap (from center Eric Ghiaciuc). I was just fortunate enough to get to it before somebody in burgundy and white. |
| That five-year gap in age is big, ... When they played football in the yard, Eli was always the center. I'm sure there was something in Eli that said: 'One of these days I'm not going to be the center. One day, I'm going to take a snap.' |
| We have our quarterback whisper. I found that's a lot easier on the ears, ... That way nobody can hear anything but the center. So he just whispers to the center, we snap it and run plays that way. |
| [Boise State offensive coordinator Chris Peterson was watching his quarterback line up under center for a routine passing drill this spring when an unusual thought crossed his mind.] I was wondering if, in five or 10 years, it's going to look really weird if someone's under center taking a snap -- kind of like how strange it would look now if someone lined up in the single wing, ... If someone lines up under center, will people be like, 'What is that?' |
| At Tech, we snap punts 14 yards from center. In the NFL, it is 15 yards. Before the snap, Chris Reis is the personal protector. We talk back and forth. Prior to the snap we have to look at how the opposing team is lined up. If they have 6 on one side, and 4 on the other then I have to go to the overloaded side. I block what is referred to as the 'A' gap. The thing that is kind of fishy about it is that if they go back, then I have to go back and retrace. If the guy on the left comes around, then I have to go back and block him. You also never know who will be lining up. Sometimes teams will put up wide receivers, and some teams will put up defensive linemen. |
| I was fortunate. I'm supposed to take care of the football. That's my job. I fumbled the football; that's a no-no, that's something you can't do. |
| I've been fortunate to have been through that before, where the offense struggled and the defense had to play every snap. I've been through it, so that's where I get some of my strength from. |
| We'll re-evaluate everything from center snap to what the coaches are doing and see how we can get better. |
| Receivers are taught to look at the center, but they need to get a pre-snap read, and most just focus on their guy, |
| Throughout the week I just tried to take every snap I could. When my number is called, I just have to keep it between the white lines. |
| They are on top of that center, and it seems like they know the snap count of the opposing team because they are pushing them back. |
| The effort was really, really good. I thought we looked real good on defense. We talked about getting to the ball and making plays. Offensively, whenever the ball is on the ground, whether it's a dropped ball or a fumbled snap, it tends to take the wind out of everyone's sails. I think that's what happened. We had a chance to make big plays and didn't do it and guys got frustrated. |
| We're very happy to have Eric with us. He gives us a proven receiver to go along with Andre Johnson. Now we can line up and we have two first class wide receivers and we feel very fortunate about that. |
