[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 198401, member: 265"] It's called "push and dance". We did it a lot when Chan was here. They never call holding unless you get by and the OL grabs your jersey as you do. They can and do grab your jersey to push you away, of course. It's an old technique and a perversion of football. They put it in largely to allow more passing and to jazz the college game up by allowing college OLs to do what they do in the pros. Too bad, that. When I played OL, if your hands came off your jersey, you were automatically called for holding. Made for a much quicker breed of OLs and DLs. But there it is. We're at a disadvantage in that our OLs actually, you know, make contact and block. Makes it look suspicious when we do the usual stuff. This is one reason why I like our O. No *****-footing, no Italian-soccer-style-football. Our OL goes out there and at least [I]tries[/I] (especially this season) to actually hit someone. It's usually a great surprise to unexperienced opposing DLs. You can always tell who the new kids are. [/QUOTE]
