Houston on the tackle vs. UT (Image: Hipple)Yes. He's a badass. The SEC Defensive Player of the week now is now tied for the lead nationally in Total Sacks with 9.5 according to CFBStats.com.
The only thing missing from his game is an inside spin move. He's so fast rushing up field past the OT that teams often call the inside draw play to run inside his attack route. If he could vary his approach a little with an inside spin, he could further disrupt the opponent's play calling.
Houston is currently on pace to record 15.5 sacks this season. Although, that number will be almost impossible to hit with GT throwing the ball so infrequently and Cam Newton being so

No one touches Derrick Thomas. He set untouchable records as a senior and blew the career record out of the water.
I'm pretty sure Alex Brown played for UF...
Alex Brown played for Georgia?
Didn't Alex Brown go to UF?
Richard Tardits!
Couldnt you at least find a picture with Houston actually making the tackle???!?
Actually, I have very few pics of Houston in action that I have rights to publish.
The way that play looks to me is Houston is part of the tackle. But you could see it otherwise. Obviously.
