A compilation of some Herschel Walker's collegiate highlights at the University of Georgia. From his legendary freshman campaign to his stellar junior year, Herschel Walker was consistently brilliant over the course of his hall-of-fame career at Georgia. A rare mix of size, speed, and power, Walker was the rarest of running backs; one who could run over defenders just as easily as he could run past them.
The games I used to take the clips from can be found on Stephen Barnett's youtube channel (and there were a few other channels I used as well that you can find if you look around): / sbbarnett244896

In that season, Georgia had a three pronged offense...Herschel left, Herschel right, Herschel up the middle.

Chris Coulter on god he got 51 caries in one game before

@theeclecticcollective8279 4 года назад

Lol. Yep. The playbook had four plays: Toss Sweep Left to Herschel Toss Sweep Right to Herschel Handoff to Herschel Pass (to Herschel of course). Everyone else’s “assignment” was to get out of Herschel’s way so you didn’t get hurt.

The point about Herschel is that everybody knew he was getting the ball. Yet it mattered not.

@theeclecticcollective8279 4 года назад

Exactly this!!! Count how many times in this video UGA lines up in an I formation with one or NO receivers... The other team’s coaches and coordinators knew before they even arrived at the stadium that Herschel would be getting 30-50 carries and all they had to do to win was stop him.

@Walker_Bulldog 3 года назад

Yeah hut it wasn't fair. The defense wasn't sure if he'd be running the left tackle or the right tackle.

@jgringo5516 Год назад

Yeah, and I recall that Bulldog Oline being undersized too. That Pitt team they played in the Sugar Bowl dwarfed them on both sides. GA had virtually no pass game to help the cause. Walker really was amazing to watch back then. Short strides, crazy strong, and lightening quick. He made defenses look like they were playing in slow motion.

@briancoleman971 2 месяца назад

Exactly. Everyone in the stadium knew he was getting the ball and still couldn’t stop him. It’s not like they had a great passing game to take the pressure off Walker.

@MrOldrock1 7 лет назад

One of the most overlooked personality traits of Herschel Walker was how humble he was. Even after his first collegiate touchdown against Tennessee, he always would attempt to find the referee and hand him the ball after he scored. Very respectful. He always looked like he had "been there before."

@PockyCandy 7 лет назад

I've never really cared about how "humble" or respectful a player is after a touchdown. I mean, I think that if you score a touchdown, then you can do whatever you want. However, I do think that players look dumb when they do all sorts of theatrics when they go crazy after simple first down runs.

@Darin-USMCB-- 6 лет назад

I had read years ago, that Hershel trashed talked his opponent but in a much different way, like killing them with kindness, after he ran over a guy, he might kindly tell them I hope I didn't hurt you, Or he might say , I'll be coming right back this way in a minute! All in his humble polite manner, he didn't need to be arrogant, he was the real deal , and anyone that tried to tackle him figured that out real quick!

Hershel made more defenders miss tackles than anyone in college history, he would either make them miss, out run them or just flatten them as he runs them over, doing All in such an effortless manner. This video shows numerous examples of how it would take 5-6 guys & a whole lot of luck to bring down this magnificent athlete! I could watch him all day!

@camblizzy2020 Год назад

I would say Reggie bush was more elusive

@m00t53 Год назад

Barry Sanders was easily more elusive. Herschel was fast and could truck right through guys. He was also really good at finding gaps and hitting them. Barry CREATED gaps where there were none. His juke was lethal and no one could tackle him when he used the sauce

@outtahere321 7 лет назад

Hard to beat Herschel......so much excitement in Georgia during those years when he was playing. He is THE reason Georgia has its national championship, but certainly the whole team was amazing in 1980. Lindsay Scott's catch against Florida will never be forgotten, either. The team never gave up. Looking back the following few years, if not for crazy endings against Pittsburgh and Penn State, Georgia would have had two more NC also, but it just didn't end up that way, but those games were close. You can't forget that guy, Marino, who played for Pittsburgh.....one of the best to play the game. I will never forget that last touchdown pass he threw that won it for Pittsburgh.

@Dr.ScatKohlenblo-nj2cv 3 месяца назад

Love these classic tailback videos. Fantastic job!. Herschel's freshman year in particular...is just unmatched in so many ways, and...a national championship?...he definitely, and I mean definitely, deserved two Heisman's if anybody ever did. He was was one of those boys from the south that never even lifted weights, ever, in high school. He was just simply a grown man, at the peak of his powers even perhaps, at eighteen. Ya just can't teach what he had to offer. Truly, an absolute once in a generation physical freak of nature.

@juniorquarles9120 7 лет назад

The amazing thing about Walker in college is that he was 80 to 90% of their offensive plays. It was usually sweep left, sweep right. down the middle with walker. He just could not be stopped. Always felt that the Dallas Cowboys never gave him enough touches running the ball because he had the ability to wear defenses down and never get tired.

@davidmonroe4780 Год назад

Georgia had one hell of a good offensive line, or Herschel wouldn't have been as phenomenal as he was.

@paulroggenbeck3129 Год назад

Standing ovation for that offensive line and downfield blocking! Those holes were HUGE!!

@quant65 7 лет назад

Coaching Advice: looks like the best way to tackle Herchel, since he doesnt lift his feet to high when running, is to get your torso tangled up in his feet when he's running over you; but keep your arms in tight as not to get them mangled up in his thighs when his stomping you.

Herschel ran with such abandon as a freshman. Listen and you can hear the crowd volume escalating as they get the sense that he might break another long run. Shock and awe. And remember he went right from football to track. And he did one hell of a robot dance back then. I can remember a TV show with him doing the robot to Private Eyes by Hall and Oates while his sister Veronica watched. And he wrote poetry... "I wish they could see the real person in me, now it does not show, but someday they will know." I grew up without a father and Herschel was my hero and role model. God's blessings Herschel.

Great Times, they were!

@unhappygilmore7129 4 года назад

One of my greatest memories of Herschel was when he just flattened a defensive end on a block. He was a great all around player, just always hated the fact that he went to the USFL at the beginning of his career; he would've been known as one of the greatest if he would've played in the NFL. Can't blame him though for going for the cash.

Buck Belue's passing is impressive...the blocking is good...Rex Robinson's kicking game was awesome...(too many players to mention them all). They fought to the finish in EVERY game in 1980(coming from behind in several games)...which paid off at the Sugar Bowl. Todd Gurley had NOTHING on Herschel Walker. I wonder why today's players suffer SO many injuries? These guys must have had better conditioning or something.

I appreciated the write-up, but you went slightly overboard with your praise of Buck Belue. Lindsey Scott made him look much better than he actually was. You were right about the blocking though. That line blew open some huge holes for Walker.

Yeah, Herschel ran the ball almost all the time and he never seemed to tire and just kept going even after all those carries. Lol... I know there were a lot of teams that just dreaded playing against him.

@ethanmanz9799 6 лет назад

yes that would be incredibly smart, to give the young men a piece of a legendary team that they have the capability to become

I wish he had went into the NFL under the right system because he should be in the NFL Hall of Fame. Him & Bo Jackson was just a like but Bo Jackson was on a much better NFL team. H.W. should've been on Denver with John Elway.

Jay-Rock Donald Trump screwed up Hershel’s career.

@rubbersoul420 2 года назад

Don’t forgot he wasted some time on trumps football team.

He juggled 3 little pigs while jumping fences to train. Then he let them go and got in his cardio. Walker would bench press a horse, but never generic weights. He was a freak from farm living.

God I wish I was alive in that era to see him play

I was, and it was a thing of beauty, even though my team lost.

@butchcassidy3373 2 года назад

Saw his play every home game at Georgia and several away games including the win against ND for the 1980 national championship. Hell of an athlete.

@rickwilliamson9248 2 года назад

Watch very carefully... and you'll see #24 (Lindsey Scott) downfield throwing blocks on a HUGE number of Herschel's long runs. What a great, unselfish teammate.

This is more like every play from 2 games more than it is a highlight reel of a career. It is hard to find any Herschel Walker material though and a lot of this footage looks a lot like game tapes rather than broadcast footage.

@1OFGODSOWN 5 лет назад

You never saw him showboating because he was about team and not himself.He always gave credit to the linemen who blocked for him and to God who gave him the talent.

@michaelmerck7576 3 года назад

My uncle Mark would always call Herschel the "Georgia Jesus"

@MrSuckafree247 7 лет назад

I miss Keith Jackson and Pat Summerall on the broadcast, they really made the game exciting.

MrSuckafree247 yes they did. nuthin like good commentators

@skylerg6550 2 года назад

Anybody else notice in the 80s how players would run all the way to the back of tje endzone as if they were so fast they couldnt bring themselves to a stop

Hershel was the Best Ever! Others may be close, But he a was the best

@PockyCandy 6 лет назад

I personally think that Adrian Peterson and/or Eric Dickerson is the most talented runner I've ever seen, but I can see the case for Herschel Walker.

@rickbackous9750 2 года назад

I seen Herschel play live once. It was like watching a grown ass man against Pop Warner players. Not to take ANYTHING away from Herschel because he is the best but that O line created some massive holes for him and then once he got going downhill it was over. No chance of stopping him at that point.
