The Tush Push is all the rage in football, as most teams are running the play to gain an advantage on the QB Sneak. Some people still believe, though, that the play is too dangerous for the game, as Alabama coach Nick Saban said earlier this week.
“We’ve tried to make a lot of rules in the last few years that are intended to enhance player safety,” Saban said, via Matt Stahl of AL.com. “And I don’t think that’s necessarily a play when people are running into the pile and aggressively pushing the pile forward, that is enhancing player safety.”
The coach added that he didn’t believe that the play made a huge difference.
