    I'm imagining, "Ok guys, we have a plan. As long as they don't line up in a certain formation, we will execute our plan. ...Crap, they lined up in that formation."
    More likely a situation where they game planned for the 5 or 6 different formations they expected the team to run based on past history and they suddenly ran their offense out of a completely different formation they didn't expect in half the play. For example, something like a triple option or empty backfield/spread.

    Seems like the sort of thing that can happen in the first game of the year in particular.

    Especially when the other team has a new coach.

    Not saying that reality of it probably happens more than we think but to openly admit you got out coached has to be infuriating for a fan base.

    Something similar to this probably happened to Klieman against Montana Aug 2015. But by December MT had no hope.

    Illinois is following up their Nebraska win by losing at home to something called UTSA.
