huskerhaze Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Bell knocked him off his rocker. He did jump right up afterward. I was surprised Spielman complimented his technique. Quote Link to comment
whateveritis1224 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Props to Smith today, 12 tackles including a couple in the open field for losses or no gains that could have been big plays for Sparty. Quote Link to comment
DrunkOffPunch Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Not a huge Smith fan but you gotta give the guy props for jumping in there and taking a hit like that and holding on. Quote Link to comment
hskrpwr13 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He made the play as he should have. Ya, he took a shot, and it resulted in a 3-yard game. I was more impressed with PJ's stop, than Bell's hit. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 It was only a "tackle" in that Bell tripped over him after he ran over him. However, it was a nice job filling hard. Just deliver the shot next time. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Ya he played solid today...got murdered on that play. Tough to bounce up Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think Smith commented earlier this week to paraphrase, "Bell is a big guy, you have to set your shoulders and get ready to be hit in the chest. You get run over, hang on and wait for your friends to show up and help". Â Kid sold out to make the stops tonight. Â Next year we are THIN at safety. Juco maybe? Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Not a big fan of Smith either, mostly because he has had tackling problems in the past (especially open field tackles). Today, i give him major respect for improving on that aspect of his game. Â We'll have a lot of experience in the secondary next year, I would expect a lot of bodies to move around. Andrew Green, Ciante Evans, Mo Seisay, Charles Jackson, Harvey Jackson, Corey Cooper, Stanley Baptiste. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 PJ has played lights out for us since conf play started. Made a ton of tackles, and been a real ball hawk. Maybe nobody noticed, but the guy Leveon Bell is real hard to bring down. He's one of the most bruising runners in the B10. PJ did well to tackle the guy without much YAC. 1 Quote Link to comment

Bell is a bruiser. Kind of surprised PJ didn't get carted off after that hit. Quote Link to comment

Andrew Green, Ciante Evans, Mo Seisay, Charles Jackson, Harvey Jackson, Corey Cooper, Stanley Baptiste. Â Agreed. Though the 2014 campaign, as it appears on paper, may be a tad light in the talent department for secondary players...but hey, that's why JuCos in Kansas were created, yes? Quote Link to comment

We have a couple of guys coming in that could be really special. I'm not worried about the secondary. Quote Link to comment
Haspula Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Does anyone have a video of it? It looked pretty nasty live Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Well after tackling a guy for a 3 yd gain after getting his head snapped back, a play or two later he tackled him AGAIN for a very short gain. He came to play, no doubt. L Bell is a beast, but PJ tackled him by himself multiple times. Quote Link to comment
GBR #1 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 PJ has really brought it on his senior year. I think he has been an impact player. Quote Link to comment
