the best example that comes to mind was years ago, when Iowa used to run a lot of wr screens....I think it was vs Purdue, they used the same formation, the same motion and faked the wr screen and instead of blocking, the TE (Dallas Clark IIRC) broke down like he was going to block, then turned upfield and was wide open for a TD pass.

not something that required a year to install, a tweak or wrinkle on a play they ran every week.
That was Sam LaPorta against Colorado St. In 2021. And they never ran that play again all year which absolutely pissed me off.

A bye week is a great opportunity to tweak the game plan a bit to target weaknesses of your upcoming opponent as well as break some patterns you’ve discovered through self scouting.

Unfortunately for us, Brian wasn’t very effective at either of those.

KF was the king of running 1 successful play and then never returning to it again.

Just because they hadn't run something before doesn't mean it was new and/or installed over a break. It was a play in the playbook that was used to go against tendencies. It was there the whole time, just waiting for the right look and opportunity to present itself.

Tendency breakers definitely occur more often post bye. Those were already there just not used. That’s literally every team

There are whores who aren't slutty at all. Sure, they will put out for money, but they clearly hate it and the sex is completely mechanical.

This happens quite a bit in Medellin unfortunately
