      Jackson ran to the spot and stopped. The WSU player hit him and pushed him into Huntley.

      I think Jackson learns from this, I’m not football stud, but even I know it is better to administer the blow than to receive it on a block or tackle.

      Impossible. I’ve been led to believe that our TEs are excellent blockers.

      But seriously, that was an awful attempt at making a block.

        Because one mistake makes for a terrible blocker. 🙄

          Where did I say anyone was a terrible blocker?

            That was your implication. Our TEs are good blockers. One mistake doesn’t negate that. Besides that, the discussion was that Bushmam was a worse blocker than all our TEs.

              No, that was your incorrect inference. My implication was that our TEs (more specifically, Jackson) might not be the excellent blockers that a few on here tout them to be. Being less than excellent does not equal “terrible”. There are many levels of ability between excellent and terrible.

              To the point of the discussion about Bushman, Jackson showed nothing on that play that would indicate he is a better blocker than Bushman, let alone an excellent or even good blocker.

      I like the two freshman that came in. I am not a fan of Jackson from the mistakes I have seen already in the bowl game and the INT.
