Thanks_Tom RR Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 TA hurdles another would-be tackler. That marks five hurdles over four games ('14 Fresno St, '14 Northwestern, '15 South Alabama, '15 Southern Miss) between last year and this one. It looks impressive. The question is, are you excited or terrified when he does it. Here are some images I could find. https://twitter.com/JPlanos/status/647822519290867712/photo/1 1 Quote Link to comment
Sargon Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 He's good at it and avoids taking shots doing it. I'm a fan. Like to see him tuck and run (decisively) more often when he can't find anyone open. He's passed up lots of open lanes and turned them into numerous inc/int/sacks/groundings. Quote Link to comment
Walk_On_Reject Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Very impressive.......against lesser talent. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Terrified. But TA is becoming a pretty special talent. Love that. Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I like Tommy. He runs well and liked seeing him get into the run game. When this offense clicks, it'll be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment

Husker67 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Nebraska is 4-0 when Armstrong hurdles a would-be tackler. Looks like a trend. Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Correct me if not correct but I do believe there is a rule against jumping and or hurdling over would be tacklers ? I recall some rule on this. Quote Link to comment
FrankWheeler Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hurdling is a penalty in high school not college. Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Correct me if not correct but I do believe there is a rule against jumping and or hurdling over would be tacklers ? I recall some rule on this. The rule is jumping on top of would be blockers in an effort to block a kick. You can jump over would be tacklers anytime you want. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Correct me if not correct but I do believe there is a rule against jumping and or hurdling over would be tacklers ? I recall some rule on this. That's a rule in the NFL. Not sure about college. Apparently not. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 He is continuing the tradition of tough as nail NU QB's... A record you can't track, but can see. Two games with huge blocks and then today with the assisted tackle on that INT. Even had the announcers on ESPNNews talking about TA leading with his helmet and targeting. Yep, that's an NU QB, targeting on a tackle.... Guy is solid and a great leader. Wants to win at all costs. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Nebraska is 4-0 when Armstrong hurdles a would-be tackler. Looks like a trend. Pretty sure he hurdled a guy against BYU. :/ Quote Link to comment
broganreynik Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 It scares me. Especially on that play, where the hurdle really resulted in minimal gain; as he just went out of bounds directly afterward. I guess, as long as he doesn't get hurt, I'm fine with it. But damn, it makes me nervous. Quote Link to comment
