You are so wrong brother but ok.

Here's an excerpt from ChatGPT that says its been used by all levels of college football. Including UGA, Ohio State, and Obama..

"The "tush push," also known as the "brotherly shove," is a play where the quarterback is pushed from behind by teammates (usually offensive linemen or a fullback) to gain extra yards, typically on short-yardage situations like 3rd-and-1 or in goal-line scenarios.

This play has become especially popular with the Philadelphia Eagles in recent seasons, who have been particularly effective at executing it, especially with Jalen Hurts as the quarterback. However, several other NFL teams have used some variation of the tush push at various points. Teams like the Washington Commanders, Dallas Cowboys, and Indianapolis Colts have also been known to employ it on occasion, though none have used it as frequently or as effectively as the Eagles.

The NFL hasn't formally outlawed the play, though it's become a point of discussion, particularly after the Eagles' success with it. Since it's largely a quarterback sneak with pushing assistance, teams that have more powerful offensive lines or mobile quarterbacks tend to implement it with success.

So while the Eagles have been the most associated with it, multiple teams have run versions of the tush push. However, there’s no official count of how many different teams have used it at any given time, but it’s not limited to one or two teams.

Have any college football teams use the tush push play?

Yes, college football teams have also used the tush push or similar quarterback sneak plays where players push the quarterback from behind to gain extra yards. While the specific term "tush push" might not be as commonly used in college football as it is in the NFL, the concept is still present in both the FBS (Football Bowl Subdivision) and lower levels of college football.

In fact, pushing the quarterback from behind has been more widely accepted in college football than it has in the NFL. The NCAA rulebook does not prohibit it, unlike the NFL, where the tactic is a subject of controversy and debate. As a result, many college teams, especially in short-yardage or goal-line situations, have used this tactic to gain tough yards.

Teams with strong offensive lines or mobile quarterbacks, like Georgia, Alabama, and Ohio State, have been known to run this play effectively. College football teams in general seem to use the tush push or similar variations more frequently and openly than their NFL counterparts, as it is a legal and often effective strategy in college football."

Not trying to have a marathon argument with ya. Enjoy the AFC championship. Go Tigers!

It would be a good move for Dabo to institute the tush push.
