Doc’s Diagnosis: A Big Gain for Gabe Ervin Against Colorado

The Nebraska running back got good blocking, but it could have turned out even better

Nebraska started its first possession of the second quarter inside its own 10 yard line Saturday in Boulder. On the first play, Gabe Ervin Jr. broke loose for a 26-yard run, and the Huskers immediately had more manageable field position against Colorado.

In this edition of Doc's Diagnosis, former Nebraska offensive lineman Dr. Rob Zatechka points out the well-executed blocking that helped make it happen. But it's always the little things, and a different split-second decision by one Husker could have turned it into something even bigger, Dr. Rob explains.
