Go down down down until you see the videos of that game, and then go to "Second half, Drive One"
8th play they have a freeze play that they motion both A-Backs into the backfield for a wishbone look
So, they've lined up in a wishbone once and didn't even run a play.

Paul Johnson ran that "play" 3 different times this year, and it is NOT a designed play. It is intended to draw the defense offsides on 4th down because they are anticipating the snap as the A-Back finishes his tail motion through the heels of the B-Back. So, I guess technically you could say they lined up in the wishbone, but they never once ran a play from it. Jerk. :-)
Part of the problem with this is that the formations and such need to support subbing and these types of players. GT nor Navy do not use a fullback, yet, this stupid game REQUIRES you to have a fullback on your roster. The B-Back is NOT a fullback; he is a tailback that is a tough inside runner who has enough speed to get to the outside, like Jonathan Dwyer or Adrian Peterson (or Ga Southern fame in the previous video). I seriously doubt EA fixed that aspect of the game and will still call that position "FB" and the A-Back positions "HB". And of course, if I recruit a great inside runner and move him to FB he gets a nice ratings drop. Slick, guys, real slick.
