[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 338330, member: 2426"] It was a counter option, CPJ stated so in the post game press conference. SBNation has an article about how the play was messed up: [URL]https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2017/9/5/16253366/tennessee-georgia-tech-two-point-conversion-overtime-2017[/URL] [IMG]https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/am5HICLLzMuTBEXy0uoIv-z7yzI=/800x0/filters:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/9177719/Screen_Shot_2017_09_05_at_12.48.03_AM.png[/IMG] At this point, GT has four offensive players on the right side while TN only has three defensive players. If TQ had continued forward, the LB would have had to choose between tackling the QB and tackling the BB. The LB is the option guy, he is not supposed to be blocked.
