To send the full-back around the end there is no change in the position of the men.

Diag 12

Full back around the end.

The play is made in almost identically the same way as shown in the preceding diagram, except that in the present case lh endeavors to force the opposing end toward the inside, while fb puts on utmost speed and rounds the end outside of him.

In all plays around the end circumstances may arise which offer an advantage in selecting the side of the opposing end other than that called for by the signal. While as a general rule it is best to follow the signal, for the interferers are working with that in mind, still, a skillful runner may secure long gains for his side by judiciously seizing an unexpected opening.

Le takes the first extra man in the line outside of tackle as before. (See diagram eleven.) Another play in which fb runs around the end is shown in diagram 63.
