What a Line Up

Timothy Brown of Football Archaeology joins us again this week to educate us on another aspect of football. This week we chat about perhaps the oddest football formation I have ever heard about.


Hey Fella, you might be lined up wrong

In the podcast episode above historian Timothy P. Brown explains a positioning of the center where he snapped the ball while facing the backfield. I thought I read it wrong and was thinking Tim may have lost his marbles when he came out with this entertaining post back in late September. But there it was, the research post fillled with diagrams, newspaper accounts and news photos of the reverse center. Check out the original article on Tim's pages:
