Donovan Edwards 2022 Highlights

against Hawaii [Applause] Donovan Edwards McNamara worked a lot on his accuracy over the top season he didn't need it this time hands it off and it's interesting why he made that decision something feel a little interesting about that nice run between the tacos by Donovan Edwards you guys got to make sure the swag is right for sure yes run it into the boundary with Donovan Edwards moving the pile inside the 30-yard line Jim Harbaugh was making was to the fact that you pan you plant two seeds you water it on this showcase right now and limited action is impressive McCarthy hands it off with tail back streak between the tackles down to the one-yard line Donovan Edwards Edwards again and he'll score touchdown Michigan it's all there [Applause] and he continues to build on it it's Edwards who's got a crease sent over to the 40 pushed out at the 30-yard line and the near sideline we know he can catch passes we know he's a match-up night where he's got a linebacker on him tough receiver at the bottom of your screen he airs it out [Applause] in the egg in the basket they feed Edwards hunting for the goal line it's a Michigan touchdown we love our touchdowns but we love a beautiful pitch and catch look at this one not too many running backs in the country can do that so so naturally look at the separation there on the Hawaiian linebacker and then why not Donovan will throw the dog a bone go ahead and finish the drive with the touchdown in the backfield here's Edwards on the Run huge hole breaks it back and goes down close to the 15-yard line should be enough for first down 25 yards plays for Michigan so far Donovan Edwards first down Wolverine from McCarthy to take a shot down the field and who hand it off and words wow nice burst low snap handled by McCarthy he'll Sprint out turns the corner throws caught touchdown Wolverines Donovan Edwards and you're going to get the blitz right here from Jack Campbell what you should get is a little hot route from Edwards but McCarthy doesn't like it right away so he just runs around Jack Campbell or excuse me Luke's Van Ness and he just throws it to the back of the end zone and there he is wide open Donovan Edwards for a touchdown from Michigan we're down to two at the 28th McCarthy started eight for eight he's three of seven cents here's McCarthy over the middle caught Donovan Edwards first down here's a handoff straight ahead Edwards McCarthy hands it off Edwards so happy to see him second down to nine and here's the run with Edwards cuts it inside again to the 11. at the Penn State 36. is Edwards slick move good on the outside second down at the 26. here's a handoff Edwards Donovan Edwards still on the Move Edwards breaks it back and will go down inside Penn State territory Edwards between the tackles we'll fall down close to the five that's very quick first down from with a lane though make that Edwards breaks it back Donovan Edwards spreading touchdown Michigan 67 yards this is a great job by the offensive line watch Olu oluwatime as well as Right Guard Zack zinter they pull out boom those blocks right there free Edwards and now he's gone and then it's about the vision and the cutback he gets the cut back there and it's a foot race to the end zone and Michigan's ground game strikes again Michigan over 300 yards rushing first down and ten here's Edwards and he pops it loose 38. Edwards first down Michigan McCarthy sideline throw Edwards Out of Bounds at the 15 game and running back here's Edwards with a lane and look at him go Edwards Donovan Edwards breaks it out Donovan Edwards down inside the five and the unblocked players all the way to the right side so Edwards just runs away from him I mean these guys are just so good in the Run game they're going to cover up those guys up front in the backs do a great job of understanding where the unblocked player is going to be going opposite there it was Curtis Jacobs 23 and Edwards just runs away from him 28 carries 166. Edwards again touchdown Michigan to either side Donovan Edwards the running back fake to him Edwards has it with Running Room down the sideline and he's down at the three-yard line well he's going to get matched up on the middle linebacker and he runs a little option route Stutter Step break outside and McCarthy has great confidence throwing to him out of the backfield twice one of the co-offensive coordinators told us yesterday if he was a wide receiver he'd be one of our best wide receivers Max bredesen a tight end lined up as the fullback Edwards turns the corner big part of the first half Michigan State oh for two on fourth down Edwards Edwards here's the speed to bounce outside first down pretty cool trophy it really is Paul Bunyan goes back to 1953. Edwards Ryan Hayes Trevor King a little one Timmy Zack Center Carson Barnhart state Edwards checks in the game here's his first Carry and he's in the red zone and all the way down to the 14. Edwards again able to slip through he says he's good to go but starting this drive with number seven it is Edwards and he's going to carry tacklers out to the 24. I'm excited to see him get involved more with this offense first down carry and Roman Wilson out another guy that was banged up he also missed a game extra work on that route because he just missed him could have been a huge play instead not to be and they give it to Donovan Edwards on the field Edwards behind those blockers on the left side that he got hit hard by Avery young back near McCarthy and he's going to be the lead blocker for Edwards and Edwards is hit by Christian is here but not after he picks up the first down Edwards and he's across Midfield underneath to Edwards Edwards a lot of work to do right there he got close to your screen Rutgers rushes for McCarthy they go for him there is Edwards 26 there it's great I mean he's just kind of running down the sideline in between the corner the safety can't get there in time and hashes there's no safety help instead he goes left side and it's caught no signal yes touchdown Donovan Edwards so football is a game of matchups and they think Donovan Edwards as a running back him matched up on a safety you see four there igbinosin Donovan Edwards match up on a safety or a linebacker is one of their best matchup best matchups that this Michigan offense has it's a heck of a job by Edwards coming back for the ball contested catch that's uncharacteristic for a running back and yes that is a catch it's going to be a huge case for the Heisman voters he stays on the sideline Edwards breaks free Donovan Edwards almost took it to the house but Avery young just clipped him by the shoestrings foreign about a yard short JJ McCarthy to throw it rolls out of the pocket McCarthy looking throws on the Move underneath and it's caught by Donovan Edwards Edwards first down and more Donovan Edwards plowing forward he gains 12. Edwards breaks a tackle slashes forward keeps his feet and goes down about a yard short of the first the nine yard game here's Edwards with a hole Donovan Edwards against six yards Hickman with the tackle Michigan starting to grind it now well this is starting to remind me a little of of late in the game last year where Michigan's offensive line just started winning the line of scrimmage here's Edwards with a lay Donovan Edwards down the sideline catch pass Ransom Donovan engwards touchdown Michigan the Don [Music] [Applause] 75 yards [Music] Michigan has torched Ohio State in man coverage all day long watch this Ronnie Bell or Cornelius Johnson there can just run off his Defender which means there's no one left and all they got to do is seal the linebacker Ola with Timmy the best center in college football gets it done on Tommy eichenberg he gets to the second level and then it's just Edwards and he's in a foot race Urban Meyer talked about this man coverage all day long and how Ohio state was going to have to sell out to stop the run and it's bitten him another explosive play this time it's Edwards anytime you get that one seal Gus if you don't have a support player there the running back is gone the most important block was the center Ola Timmy and Ryan Day is seeing the exact same theme play out for a second straight year 150 yards for Michigan on the ground in the second half after only 10 in the first half those big guys up front they came out they adjusted and they have played amazing Ryan Hayes Trevor Keegan Olu oluwa Timmy Zack Center Carson Barnhart trenty Jones has been in there and Donovan Edwards has gotten it done this trial 418 to go they'll run it again with Edwards form here's the run again Donovan Edwards whoa can they catch him no Donovan Edwards again 85 yards the dawn two huge touchdowns and the Wolverines go up 44-23 foreign [Music] [Applause] you have got to be Gap sound and when you're not Gap sound this is what happens Ola with Timmy hooks The Tackle and at that point boom it's gone that's what a great offensive line can do Edwards 205 yards rushing this half remember at one particular time in this game partner you said that Michigan had zero yards rushing but they did they did I mean through the first about 10 carries you know 12 carries Ohio state was doing a great job but as is the case or has been the case really all season long thus this Michigan team just excels late in the game tonight a touchdown and a punt from the 25 and Donovan Edwards Edwards spinning and another run for the Wolverines Edwards again just to chopping talking about first down at the 13. Edwards again with the crease Center here's Edwards jitterbugging Edwards hits the edge here's the burst Donovan Edwards can he get there the dot out about a big gated we told you they're a second half team and look at how they start the second half Duo means you're all walking down but the running back gets the ball over to that left side that creates a one-on-one great move in the hole right there against Reese Taylor and then he's gone look at that move makes him missing a phone booth and then the dawn sprinting down that left side early similar to what we saw a week ago Edwards breaks it back makes a cut Donovan Edwards again touchdown Michigan Purdue defends it really well watch this they've got two guys here Gus but Donovan Edward makes him Miss again Edwards right there boom he finds the crease and then he's gone and then there's another cut back to his left and now the strength look at him get all the way into the end zone this guy is becoming a second half monster was brilliant last week against the Buckeyes and now getting himself all the way across the goal line as he touches down and that one is a touchdown Donovan Edwards showing out again how about the move at the line of scrimmage 14 carry 128 yards he's averaging 9.1 yards per carry at his best in the big stage second down and eight Edwards again first down to the 29. Edwards with a hesitation hits the sideline look at the Breakaway speed Edwards hit that corner and picks up 16 yards nine at the 43. and Edwards bursts through the hole and now heading to Boulder I am over the moon go Buffs Dion text me called me this this program now they had lost to Donovan Edwards again inside the 10. like Max Duggan very highly recruited he was a five-star recruit he hands it off straight up the middle Donovan Edwards Mike though they wrestle him down from behind with Blake car on their star running back out with an a injury Edwards has stepped in and excelled well they went with two tight ends it's a Schoonmaker watch him get the block right on the middle linebacker and if Donovan Edwards gets to the second level of your defense it's over they were able to keep him from scoring a beautiful play by Bud Clark but nonetheless what a way to start the game for Michigan loveland's caught a touchdown pass in each of those two big wins against Ohio State and Purdue Edwards tried to turn the corner for sports J.J McCarthy on second and seven on target Edwards probably the most patient in terms of sticking with the Run they're not going to abandon who they are or what they do even if they're behind on the scoreboard the physical he was in the Run boxing aspect we're going to find out Edwards trying to bounce it outside Battle of speed here and he still gets to play physically and he's become the best corner in the country in the opinion of the Clark committee Edwards turned the corner and they'll spot him out of bounds after he passed the marker from the TCU 27th after the highest scoring quarter in cfp history 44 combined Point want to come toward the end of his career he and Johnson veteran receivers Edwards taken out of bounds of that this could be a run and it is and it's Edwards bounced off a hit and got in the first down he got hit hard by
