This is bonkers. Hawaii lined up a player seven yards behind its punter and a full 20 yards behind its long snapper on fourth-and-3. Snapper Noah Borden deliberately airmailed the ball over the head of punter Rigoberto Sanchez, and the snap flew to No. 10, receiver Makoa Camanse-Stevens. I have never seen this formation in my life.
Camanse-Stevens caught the snap, and would-be coverage man Ammon Barker (whose day job is wide receiver) shook a defender and caught a 21-yard pass for a first down. The Rainbow Warriors scored six plays later.
Clearly, Middle Tennessee was confused by this. Camanse-Stevens was shrugging his shoulders and looking generally nonplussed before the snap, and the Blue Raiders look like they bought it. And why not? There’s not supposed to be someone just chilling six yards behind the punter. That’s a fake no coaching staff is going to prepare for.
