Hot Rod on 4th and 16

Man I just checked out the 4th and 16 play again. Hot Rod throws a great block to make it happen...McDowell may just be the most underrated player on the team...He gives 110% on every play it seems...

I noticed that too!! Threw a block on a guy who probably has

50 lbs on him and bought Tajh the time to make the throw. Without the block I think that pass would've been batted down.

he is a nice back who came on this year.
the biggest thing I worry about from him is when he hits the pile he generally stops. AE is about the same size but seemed to usually be able to move the pile a little

There was many times this year i saw hot rod move the pile, even in the LSU game he hit the hole with power. Ed Ihateclemson cunningham even commented on it

He did a decent job moving the pile against LSU

That's the first time I noticed that though. Hopefully another year of S&C will get that shored up a bit.

Check out FR-Isaiah Battle at left tackle on that same play.

He just drives him into the ground.

really seems to be getting better w/ the rock in his hands

I think we'll be ok at RB next year with him, Brooks, and Howard doing most of the running.

possibly goes for a TD.
The guy knows how to get open.

I'm glad he made the block

And to be clear it's way more than I could've done, but it wasn't really a great block. He just sort of three his body at the legs of the defender. It worked, so I'm gla he did it, but it wasn't a spectacular textbook block.

It would've been cool if he'd have clotheslined the guy
Jan 15, 2013, 1:51 PM

and decaptiated him. like if the guys head actually came unattached from his body. Would've been wild.

Hot Rod could do that...

if he was a foot taller and weighed another 100 lbs.

He was in danger of being called for a chop block

As the OL was close to still being engaged.
I'm glad it worked out, but staying on his feet and using the DL's momentum against him by driving him outside the pocket and beyond Tajh would've been more by the book.
That said it worked. Glad it did

HR also hit and LSU lineman #9 I think and drove him

backwards two yards. This kid can lay the wood.
I'll watch the game for the 22nd time tonight and provide the down and count on the clock. I know it was inside LSU's 30. I think it was our first deep drive in the fourth qtr resulting in a field goal.
