How Brilliant was it of Dabo to incorprate

the fake punt call ??? After the ACCCG debacle and chewing Teasdall out NO ONE, announcers, Oklahoma's team,in the stadium, tvland or Tigernet saw that was coming. Great call and props to Teasdall and to Wilkins, Wilkins is an athletic talented player, and I can tell you from seeing around campus, he is a good natured, amiable and approachable person, everyone I know that has had any interaction with him raves about what a good dude he is, a gentle giant off the field

I agree, it was a both a class act by Dabo to have faith in the kid and a brilliant unexpected play call given the player and the circumstance

Still shocked at how good of a pass it was.

The pass was indeed thrown well, but even better was the footwork that Wilkins displayed getting into position to catch the ball and gain yards after the catch.
It was a great call - both strategically and as a demonstration to Dabo's critics on how he treats players who go off the reservation. He might humiliate them, but it doesn't mean they don't get another chance to prove themselves.

I think they had been practicing that play prior to UNC

and that is where Teasdell got the idea to even try to run in the ACCCG. He even acted like he wanted to throw against UNC. It was a great play and was maybe the turning point of the game after OK started off fast.

Dabo said it was in the playbook last year as

a pass to Josh Watson. Don Munson said on the radio that it has worked every time in practice and he started looking for Wilkins as soon as he saw Teasdall hesitate.

And did anyone notice how close Wilkins was to busting it

for a touchdown. The tackles nearly whiffed on him. Just a toe out of bounds or he was gone.
 Great call and great execution!!

Maybe the a$$-chewing was a setup.

Dabo's smart enough that it could have been.
