Auburn Football Film School: The Inverted Veer Shreds LSU

One play in particular led Auburn to a dominant rushing performance against LSU in 2010. Let's see how it worked.

The inverted veer, or dash read or power read, was not invented by Gus Malzahn. The first quarterback to run it was not Cam Newton. According to the research of Chris Brown of Smart Football, it may have been then TCU offensive coordinator Justin Fuente and quarterback Andy Dalton that may have brought the play to college football in 2009. The TCU staff may have "stolen" it from someone else, but no team used the play like Auburn in 2010.
