Jaylon Smith vs Texas last year was basically just a highlight reel for him from start to end.
the david gardner hit was a legal hit as he was taking off to intercept the defender who intercepted his pass but Michigan fans have to be cry babies when you bring it up and tell you how bad of an illegal hit it was even though they really know it wasn't. they wouldn't complain one bit if they did it to our qb
That was awesome !! Here is another great hit to close a game against Washington by Kyle McCarthy and friend ! Viewer discretion strongly advised !! As victim almost killed !!
Since this refer to the whole game, I won't throw the flag. Are there any videos of the whole game?
I remember watching that play on TV. They replayed that bad boy over and over
Best hit I've ever seen from an ND player was Chinedum Ndukwe on Calvin Johnson... Loved the way Nedu punished guys over the middle of the field, but this was him at his best!
How about c ndukwe hit on Calvin Johnson ? Johnson is a big body and ndukwe leveled him.
Thanks Ara.
That penalty on the hit by Redfield is definitely bogus. To make it more difficult, Gardner was wearing #98 ... the number normally worn by a WR, TE or DE ... If a QB doesn't want to get hit, he should move out of the way of the return man ... if he decides to pursue, he should be open to getting hit like any other player on the field. Can't have it both ways.
I actually believe earlier in that game, a Michigan offensive lineman knocked Trumbetti out of the game with a very questionable hit.

There is a HUGE emphasis on protecting the QB on plays like that -- you can thank Alabama for that (there was a play in the SEC Championship game a few years back where the QB was absolutely blind-sided). So, while you think it was a legal hit (yes, it was above the waist and on the side), it was unnecessary as well (watch the video -- there is an ND player in better position to block Devin Gardner if he attempted to tackle Shumate).
So, by rule, it was an illegal hit (mainly, QB's are classified as "defenseless players" in those situations).

Me too. I didn't know what happened. From where I was sitting in the student section, it looked like the ball literally exploded!
Jerome Bettis:
"Now, I`ve seen the possibilities in the fullback position. I can do as much hitting at fullback as I can at linebacker. I can inflict as much punishment while I`m carrying the ball. If I can bust through (the line) as fast as I can and take somebody with me, it always pumps me up. I like to inflict a little pain on people."
