Nifty Running Back Move! Just Hurdle!

If you can't run around, can't knock down, just go over!

that was a good move and a great game. mark richt couldn't believe it didn't make the top highlight reel. moreno is amazing with his running style. i'm ready to see what the dawgs will do against a ranked team in the coming weeks. that is when their schedule gets real tough.

High risk move. Hope the coach straightened that out. That could just as easily been the last time he ever did that, or any other move, on the football field.

Yep, I'm sure it was just a reaction on his part. It even looked as if he could have cut around the guy and made more yardage. Definitely not a move you want to use very often.

Many years ago, I had the pleasure of watching Wilbert Montgomery play every week when he was in college, setting the record for most touchdowns in a season(his freshman year). He got in the habit of running at defensive secondary players just to see if he could juke them. He played several years for the Eagles, and **** Vermiel said he was the most amazing runner he ever coached.

We all have seen the highschool kids doing it. I was hoping it wouldn't make it to college football. It's going to be bad when someone gets hurt. It's not going to be pretty at all ... I'd like to see someone try it in NFL ...

No way, it was planned. I'm sure he didn't say he was going to do it on that play but knew he'd do it in the game.

He could just as easily get hurt walking to class everyday. And going to school at UGA with all those thugs there's a very good possibility of that. So let's just stop all the crap about he might get hurt. He knows the chances he takes everyday and still suits up every Saturday. Give the kid his 5 minutes in the limelight, and admit that he's a hell of an athelte.

Stupid move lol, I almost feel he would have made more yards if he just cut left. Looks BA on the reels though.
