MyBloodIsRed16 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I liked his other run when he stiffed armed the dude and then picked up the first down. He creates a problem for defenders because they get ready to tackle him head up because he's so big and then he makes a cut and puts them in position to have to make an arm tackle and that's not gonna be easy. 1 Quote Link to comment
Decked Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I don’t think he got solo tackled the whole night. First tackler usually got a wicked stiff arm or ran over. 1 Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I just watched the end zone angle of the stiff arm first down run for Yant. He either has really good vision or made up his mind before hand but seems like good vision. There was a defender coming in right away and taking an inside angle. Yant planted his foot as he was getting the ball so he could make the move to the outside. He was pretty impressive with making moves and hitting the holes. 1 3 Quote Link to comment

Yes, surprisingly shifty and good feet for such a big RB. Quote Link to comment

This was still a nice run but the first guy pretty much gets him. The first move was a nice sidestep but he tried to make another one when he shouldn't have. It did take help to get him all the way to the ground though. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I'm not trying to make fun of anyone. But it's always crazy how much Husker fans love them a big back. So far, I the only play I've seen where the first guy DIDN'T get him tackled was the first long run. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I think so. I don't know how many of his runs Chaz has posted so far but I haven't seen that one. Right now there is the one long run where he got past the first guy. On the other three, the first guy got him wrapped up at the ankles. Quote Link to comment

Awesome- so the back who has the best day all season by a LONG shot- 6 games worth, 120 plus yards- no negative plays- gets nit picked- but everyone else gets a pass? Nice Was at the game- saw plenty of tackles he ran through on the big screen etc Haven't rewatched it yet. Quote Link to comment

Nebraska55fan Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Another of Yants running through tackles. TRUCKS the MLB one on one. Quote Link to comment

I have a feeling we’re going to be seeing more highlights like this. Most backs are tackled by that LB. Yant is a difference maker for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment
