We all know the "stars", and what they did, but as it always seem to be necessary in this game, we had some guys step up in a very big way.
Dillon Lee - He played the best game of his career, BY FAR. Even without the INT, he was fantastic in run support and setting the edge.
Micheal Nysewander - He made several key blocks on running plays, including a nasty block on the TD run and a huge hit on the KO return.
Dominick Jackson - He a was a monster run blocking in this game. He looked the guy we've expected him to look like since he got here.
Geno Smith - He took a little heat for giving up the TD pass, but he played great in run support and actually was delivering big hits on Fournette, which is something he's never really been known for. He played with a chip on shoulder because of all the talk about our safeties not being big or physical enough to handle Fournette.
Hale Hentges - Go back and watch the replay and see how many key blocks he made on running plays. The kid channeled by Brian Vogler last night, and is seemingly getting better every game.
Although he doesn't qualify as a unsung, non star player, I gotta give a big tip o' the cap to Kenyan Drake too. He played his best game of the year also, and finally made a great 1 - 2 punch with Henry. I hope he can keep that up!
