That might have been the quietest 3-sack game I’ve ever seen.

Yup. I was thinking it might be Sullivan or maybe Jack. I missed Aidan, but that's my oversight.

Breakout game by Aidan H.

Our DL had its way with MD, don't know if their OL is just bad or if something clicked for us. Loved how Kilbane was playing in the second half, he was very disruptive to their offense, and he has a high motor. Pearson had a really good game too, along with the other interior guys. We'll have to keep it up against iowa, it is shaping up to be an old fashioned B1G tussle.

My first thought was how did he become a Prisoner of War?

Going totally off memory, but was that Odenigbo in 2016? I seem to remember him with a four sack game…?

Who was ST PoW? Thought Olsen deserved it.

Sometimes, the 'game' comes to you, and it's simply about being ready for it when it happens. Like Dererk Pardon's second game as a Freshman against Nebraska.

Sometimes it's a 'unit' award, particularly on the DL.

Congrats to Aidan Hubbard.

Speaking of Cam, he dropped a sure pick-six against Seattle on Sunday....

The game 'came to him' and he whiffed. Anyone who has played basketball is quite familiar with that 'Charlie Brown-like' experience of failure.

I never played baseball.

I "hunted" grouse, though. I'm zero for grouse. Grouse 25, Glades 0.

CB for Nebraska. He did have quite a game...

Not clear how much of his stuff was on ST. All 5 tackles or some at CB?

That might have been the quietest 3-sack game I’ve ever seen.

Watching the game, the DL clearly pressured well and had to defend a ton of pass plays. I remember getting frustrated that Taulia kept effortlessly moving from pressure, then some relief when pur guys would finally get him. Like you, I didn't notice Hubbard standing out. Maybe he doesn't celebrate much (good for him)

Seems like Aidan came out of nowhere to have a big game!
