Chase Young

Defensive end Chase young is an absolute monster. His specialty is sacking the quarterback. He leads the Buckeyes with seven sacks on the season, and has 14 tackles to boot.

He has recorded at least two sacks in his last two contests. He has recorded a sack in every game so far this season. Statistically, he had his best game in the season-opener against Florida Atlantic University. He recorded five tackles and a sack and a half. He is a player that is extremely disruptive and can pressure offensive lines with ease. Nebraska Football may have to have some double teams when blocking him. If they fail to block him or even let him gain an advantage, they will be in trouble.

I am excited to watch him, as he is one of the premier defensive players in the country. Nebraska better be ready to face him. The offensive line has played really well as of late. Now, they will be faced with perhaps their biggest challenge so far this season. Young is a true talent, and is a surefire lock for the NFL.
