[Ten Thousan Marbles]

Winners

Nick Eury, RB, Penn State: Nick Eury, a senior walk-on, was the fifth Penn State running back to receive a carry in the team’s 79-7 beatdown of Idaho. Eury had just one career carry entering Saturday’s game, so he was going to make these ones count. Eury got the ball six times and gained 44 yards, including this eight-yard score with 2:17 to play. He pinballed his way through an array of defenders to somehow reach the end zone. What an effort.

That’s awesome. I’m happy for the kid.

That was a great effort for sure. The best part was the team's reaction on the field. Everyone acted as though that score just won the game. That a sign of a team remaining focused and doing what they practiced, no matter the score.

I think that’s more a big show of respect for a senior walkon that busts his tail in practice and just scored his first career TD.

I hope he can score a mop up TD in every game this year...
