I like the kneel down at the end of the game. Its the first play we put in every year.

I guess double pass -- we probably don't use it enough.

Swinging gate. There are DCs out there who still don't teach how to defend it.

It looks something like this:
----------Y--T--G--G--T------------------------C------------------------------X -----------------Z---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------Q-----------------------------------H --------------------------------------------------------F---

Well, if you look closely, Z and Y are both eligible and if the defense does not have the numbers you can just wing it out there and have a multitude of blockers. X, F and H are also eligible. I have seen some teams run speed option with Q and F and also jump pass to X or H.
A team we played against ran it once, and we lined our best two kids over center. Manned every where else, and had the one of the two kids occupy the center and the other kid run directly at the Q. The Q had his clock cleaned once and they didn't run it again.
The bonus is, it creates extra practice time for the other team.

Here's how we, and most teams around here do it-
...........R..L..L..L..L..L........................................R.. ................R...........................................................................................R
.......................................................................Q........... ...................................................................................R
L being lineman, R being eligible receiver. Now your snappers eligible, which is sometimes overlooked by people who don't prepare. We run the split to the right to the corner of the endzone, snapper out route one yard in the end zone, QB and Kicker on option path, and the receiver behind the linemen trails the snapper one yard deep in the endzone. Even if the defense evens up with you it is really hard to defend if you have a guy that can move at QB.

In Idaho, a snapper has to have an eligible number and I think you have to declare him as eligible as well. Pretty sweet deal though.

Just a simple #s game. We have had our center eligable and run simple 2 man concepts with him and the flanker. if they don't match man for man behind the wall run wedge.

Thanks coaches that sounds great. Anyone ever run the Q Power if there are only 2 in the box at the center? Sounds like a great play if you can put your best 2 blockers in front of your best runner. It doesn't always have to be the QB.
Awesome play concept against many defenses. Too many options and too easy to read.

Speed option seems to be the real killer for teams to defend, especially if they have had to defend the Y or the Z behind the wall.

I ran the shovel pass to my wing back with the "waggle" look. The playside guard and tackle would fold block. Rather than the guard try to log the end like he would for waggle, he woudl just quickly punch the de and go to backer. Everyone else had rule blocking and the halfback would block the backside end just like the waggle. The fullback would run a seam looking inside to get the safeties attention, and the playside receiver would run any route to the outside (flag/out, etc.). The concept is the same as the counter, but when teams load up the te/wb side they were prepped for our counter. This way the backside gave a pass pro look and the defense would take their drops and here came the wb underneath. A lot of success with this play. Not a lot of change for my kids, but it forced to defense to prepare for this, even though we ran this 2-3 times per game only and usually on second down.
