DeathCultArmaggedon Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I figured I needed a break from all this coaching nonsense and would start a fresh topic. What is everyone's favorite Nebraska hit? My personal favorite was Keyou Craver's hit on a wide receiver screen play against Texas A&M during the 1999-00 season. You can see it here around 0:15 seconds: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MUVLq5SdFGI If you pause it on 0:16, you can really see how much power he gets on this dude; he's like 5 feet in the air.

808Husker in KCMO Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 THAT is how you make a tackle. Wrap up and drive your man into the dirt. Quote Link to comment
motorboatjonesNU Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 1. Tom Ruud's hit on Kelly Phelps vs OU in 1978 on the kickoff after we went up 17-14. 2. Rucker blowing up that hapless K-state player in '95 to spring Mike Fullman on a punt return TD. 3. Then Frost blowing up that Texas A&M DB to spirng Newcombe on that reverse in the '97 CCG.

T_O_Bull Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 The tackle that was put on Jaquez Green during the '96 Fiesta Bowl game. Seemed to scare the living daylights out of every Florida player. ...T_O_B Quote Link to comment
DeathCultArmaggedon Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 2. Rucker blowing up that hapless K-state player in '95 to spring Mike Fullman on a punt return TD. Speaking of punt return hits, does anyone know who threw that amazing block at the end of the return to free Johnny Rodgers on that famous punt return they always used to show during the Tunnel Walk? Whoever it was totally destroyed the dude. Quote Link to comment
melscott62 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 one of my favorites I cant find a video or picture for. the hit Chad kelsay put on tony banks when we played then at michigan state. banks scambled out of th pocket to his right and then set up to throw and kelsay barried his helmet in banks back. it was totally brutal. the pic was in sports illustrated, but I havent been able to findit on the net Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 There is no way anything other than Ruud's hit on the kickoff return can be nominated.....he obliterated that guy, and he did not[/g] get up. Quote Link to comment
huskers77 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Hit that always comes to mind is when Crouch crushed that Iowa Db going in for the TD! Quote Link to comment

Spiderman Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I don't have any links to 'em but I remember Mike Brown laying out a few guys. Quote Link to comment
coyeote Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 One I recall, I believe it was Damon Benning back to recieve a punt agains UCLA. Acted like he was going to catch the ball with the UCLA guy coming down the field to cover. At the last second he drop his shoulder stepped up and put a pop on the cover guy. Ball goes into the the endzone and the dudes lights were not out but really dim. Totally sandbagged him. Quote Link to comment
