Man, the thing that just separates ETN is the acceleration

He's made me laugh out loud twice now. Once, when he turned that corner as a freshman and hit the afterburners, and tonight on his TD up the middle when he just shot the hole like a cannon. I just shook my head and chuckled at both of those. He's got such a burst that defenders can't even adjust and he just runs through arm tackles before they can even grasp him. Like in his NC TD against Bama, and again tonight on his last TD I think it was. Just crazy, crazy talent.

In the other low angle they showed during the game, that safety had fear in his eyes seeing the freight train coming towards him and knowing he was on the tracks.

Agreed - it is crazy the number of times he hits a hole and absolutely no one even touches him all the way to the end zone! He really doesn't look that fast at top end speed, but his take off puts him 5 yards ahead of everyone else before anyone else is even moving the right direction.

Yes, the second level defenders commit to an angle, but he easily beats them to it. Also, the OL did a great job, with a few things to clean up this week.

It *still* shocks me how fast and how often he bursts through holes untouched. It's jaw-dropping.

He has deceptive speed. I love shots like this with defenders way in the background.
