[QUOTE="1939hotmagic, post: 439361, member: 1792"] I haven't plumbed the depths of the NCAA rule book, but offhand I don't believe it would a violation for [I]the QB, or anyone in the offensive backfield,[/I] to do it. However, I do believe it would be for a lineman to face backwards -- in 1947, Syracuse coach Ossie Solem had his center face backwards, which caused quite the controversy that season. The NCAA, I believe, soon thereafter required offensive linemen to face forward. [/QUOTE]
