thoughts on trick plays

Given the Irish have not been as yet been pushed to the wall (Clemson aside) I was wondering what others on this board might project as options to change or maintain momentum against tough North Carolina or potentially others down the road. As for me I would not be shocked to see us have a pass thrown from our punter in formation or from Avery Davis on a halfback pass. As for our punter, no opponent as yet has been exposed to what could be a surprise throw from Bramblett given my understanding he was a decent quarterback in high school. Not many college punters were quarterbacks in high school and you seldom see such an attempt at this level of play. It should also be noted that Avery Davis was an outstanding passer for his Texas high school state runner-up champion school and was originally brought to ND at that position although it was generally a given that he would have to find another position and was viewed more as an athlete. Let's not be surprised if it occurs.

Others thoughts on what we might see that is out of character for the Irish in a pinch?
