Classic Tailback - Herschel Walker Georgia Highlights

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.

[@theeclecticcollective8279]

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.

[@MrOldrock1]

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]

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--]

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!

[@benashworth7653]

how about greatest over all college player ever

[@timmyteaching]

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

[@theeclecticcollective8279]

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]

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

[@jgringo5516]

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]

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.

[@aaronrider4051]

Yet Penn State won and Georgia didn't.

[@floridagator1765]

Everyone knew he was going to get the ball and they still couldn't stop him. Best college tailback every. He could have won the Heisman every year he was at Georgia. No one would have complained.

[@brandenwebb6232]

Barry Sanders

[@outtahere321]

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.

[@Darin-USMCB--]

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]

I would say Reggie bush was more elusive

[@m00t53]

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

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.

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.

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.

That is very true. Georgia had really good offensive lines, but Herschel was so dang strong and fast that one or two guys by themselves were not going to bring him down easily unless they cut his legs out from under him. Usually it would take at least three guys to get him down.

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]

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.

[@shellybastion9974]

Mr. Walker is a great man. I heard a story once..of when an old KKK member, life-long, saw Mr. Walker play some games at Georgia..and then went to the campus to meet him. The old man found H.W. in the walking-crowd, who knows how. But the dude found H. And then apologized to him. ..God works in mysterious ways? Ever hear it? We're born dumb, and it's up to us, each and every one of us, to just learn and learn and keep learning. ..Wracks your brain; it doesn't seem to make any sense..

As a UGA fan, I believe it would be a GREAT idea for Coach Smart to play re-runs of this team...to show our current team what TRUE GRIT is! They had a lot of close calls in their 1980 season...plus NOBODY expected them to win the National Championship. They worked as a TEAM and had a very cohesive group...and some great talent, too. 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.

HE BY FAR IS ONE THE GREATEST RUNNING BACKS OF ALL-TIME!

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

[@April-ng2kx]

It was absolutely awesome!!!

[@rabczanska]

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

[@butchcassidy3373]

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.

[@mrguystarr]

Incredible prowess for a back his size... speed, shiftiness, nimbleness, acceleration, agility... He had it all.

[@rickbackous9750]

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.

[@ninline2000]

He was awesome but I saw some really great blocking too.

[@BigSwo2909]

Love this but feel like he was short changed by this video due to what was on TV & not back in the day. What an incredible football player.

[@Maal7432]

The greatest SEC back ever.

[@Maal7432]

@Pablo Lopez He’s in the conversation. Idk who the goat is overall.

[@Darin-USMCB--]

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

[@PockyCandy]

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.

[@timesachangin2489]

Phenomenal player.

[@slinkdog82]

He was all muscle so strong and brutally fast

[@byronwarner3409]

cody white I heard that he still does a thousand push-ups and fifteen hundred sit-ups a day well into his fifties.

[@slinkdog82]

Byron Warner I bet he’s still in badass shape

[@joeywalker6827]

Ive watched all of them a bunch and can't decide which is my fav. Probably the Leonard F just because he's a special talent (a lot of people criticized the music p the original, screw them do your own thing, it definitely grew on me) I like the one player one season concept but your the artist as long as you like it.

[@PockyCandy]

My own mother disliked the music, so I think that's the last time I'm putting Jazz in a video. Anyways, I've been focusing on making videos for older running backs (since a lot of those guys don't have good videos with original commentary on youtube, and they tend to be shorter and easier to make) for now, but starting with next season, I'm going to try to make a bunch of videos about the current studs. Each week I'll collect the footage (instead of doing it all at the end), so at the conclusion of the season, I'll be able to release a ton of videos. Of course, this summer, I'm going to create a bunch of videos for the older players. I will not upload a lot of the videos though. I'll wait until the next semester starts to do that. That way, I will be able to release a new video every week, even though I won't be working on any new ones during that time (except for the current player projects). After all, I don't want to my channel to die during autumn. Anyways, sorry for the long monologue. If you could, please share the video on any other social media sites. I'm trying to get as many subscribers and viewers as I can. And thanks for watching all of my videos. I appreciate it a lot :)

[@mikedoll456]

Makes me think of my dad.

[@etg832007]

Me too.

[@ghrosenb]

The amazing statistic was the 994 carries. Herschel's superpower was his durability, and the unbelievable ability to do it when everyone on the field knew he was getting the ball, with no passing game or misdirection to speak of.
