Play overview

Throw the defense off by faking an outside pitch to your Running Back running wide, before subtly handing it off inside to your Fullback diving into the 2 Hole.

A good play fake by your Quarterback selling the fake pitch will be crucial to the success of this play. If you can tempt the linebackers to flow hard outside, there could be a major vacancy in the middle of the field to run the ball.

How to install 32 FB Fake Sweep (Wishbone)

Use this teaching progression for youth football practice — walk-through first, then live reps.

  1. Walk the Wishbone alignment on air — every player finds their landmark before the snap.
  2. Teach the Fullback assignment first from the diagram, then layer the rest of the call.
  3. Rehearse the mesh or handoff at walk-through tempo until timing is automatic.
  4. Add a scout look (or cones) that matches when you want to call this play in a game.
  5. Script 4–6 live reps, then export the diagram for your staff chat or install sheet.

  • Keep language identical on the practice field and in the huddle — one name, one job.
  • Film the first live reps; pause on the landmark, not just the ball.
  • Pair this with a complementary play from the same formation so defenses cannot key one look.
  • If outside contain is soft, keep a sweep or toss in the same personnel as a change-up.
