Snyder Says Auburn is Stealing Signals

He said one of the biggest adjustments they need to make in the second half is doing a better job of hiding their signals from the Auburn sideline.
aaaaaaand crickets from the SEC network crew.
These guys are the biggest jokes for competitors possibly ever seen in the college football era.

Well, that's news to me

I was under the impression that only certain programs (we all know who you are) were allocating resources simply to steal signals from other teams.
If it is part of the game, it is a part we seem to be failing miserably at.

If you see something on tape, or pick it up in a game... you take advantage of it

What's wrong with stealing signals? Heard the qb is trying to read the defense too!

Out of curiosity, what do you think is wrong with it?

The offense sets up the play calling as a way to speed up getting play calls in so as to give the offense an advantage in determining tempo. Now unless the defense has gone to some nefarious lengths (stealing a playbook, etc), then they are 100% in the clear to pay attention to what the offense is signalling and what the play is.
In fact they would be painfully stupid not to do so.

You make it sound so simple

Yet I've never once heard a team complain that "Clemson is stealing their signals". Judging by some of our outcomes, I would have to assume we either aren't even trying, or are downright horrible at doing so.
I'm not sure "nefarious" is the best word for what I'm getting at, but it's Auburn. Yes, I'm insinuating that they have allocated resources far above and beyond the average program for gaining an advantage beyond simply lining up and executing plays.
Just interesting that the only actual complaints I have heard regarding stealing signals were from Jimbo Fisher and Snyder just now about...Auburn.

It's a simple concept

One that most offensive teams prepare for and guard against.
The real issue is the offense having these "tells" in place and not correcting them.

in broad daylight (or arclight), what's wrong with looking at them?
They actually expect the other team to look, or they would just hold up the play names, wouldn't they?

The Criminoles were stealing play calls last year.

While watching film, they realized that if the heels of the linemen were up, it was a run. If they were down, it was a pass.

I hope we can figure out how to steal some FSU signals
