I never knew the context of that play for a long time. What made that hit and fumble so sweet was the fact the previous play was one of the most blatantly corrupt officiating calls I've ever seen in giving Michigan a first down. Clowney just lined up and said, "fine, I'll get it back myself."
@@haroldfarquad6886 I watched that game live when it happened. I had no horse in the race but after what the refs did to SC i was hyped af when Clowney made that play.
Commenting because this is such a good video. All truly big hits I haven't seen 10 times in other videos before, good quality, well edited, nice replays, no annoying music or ads. ☺☺☺☺
They are and I think its because of the major differences in skill level. You've got newbs from psychology class vs top NFL prospects playing football. A little bit of an exaggeration, but you get my point..
@@macabree5856 that Taylor mays hit was definitely huge. I think the thing that solidifies clowneys hit as hardest to me is that he’s hitting through the RBs midsection. That’s hard af to hit someone so hard in the center of their mass and demolish them like that. A lot of hits like the Wisconsin/Nebraska crack back, that Taylor mays hit etc is they’re up high and the dude getting hit just slingshots backwards. Plus clowneys listed at 274 in college that’s a shit ton of force going full speed through someone 😂 another hit I love in the nfl is when Reggie bush gets destroyed on a swing pass vs the eagles. Can’t remember the eagles defender who hit him but he blew bush up
Definitely should include Nigel Bradham (FSU) hit against LaRon Byrd (Miami). Originally called targeting because it looked so brutal, but was later retracted by the officials head office post-game. Nasty, but clean hit.
CTE is no joke. The NFL should invest a billion into CTE proof helmets to protect investments. These young kids are getting stronger and stronger and hit hard AF.
“Boom! That’s football” 😂😂😂 dude on the ground someone’s son fresh outta high school just gasping for air with 5 cracked ribs piercing his lungs hahahahaha
Mixture of adrenaline and showmanship like trying to make it seem like it didn't hurt. I'm sure a lot of us have bluffed like something didn't hurt knowing damn well that shit hurt like hell lol.
This one I really liked! This hard hitting was what I was taught during JR Highschool '79-'81. I was small but, I saw smaller guys in the NFL make big hits so I decided I could do it too. I would launch myself at guys twice my body weight and take them down, that's football! I was a Chiefs fan but, the Raiders had a smaller defensive guy named Ronnie Lott that I tried to base myself on. He ended up joining the Chiefs and broke his leg during preseason and never played an actual game for us but, he was my favorite defensive player, he flat out laid the wood to people!
If you thought Ronnie Lott was a good hitter, you woulda loved watching this junior high school kid Tommy Chew tackle players. This boy was sendin'm to the ER on the reg. We called him... "the ambulance whisperer" because one would have to show up every game. i don't know whatever happened to that boy. Probably ended up in prison. He just loved to hurt people.
Everyone who played an actual career of this style, now has CTE and horrific mood issues and suicide or memory loss is a serious concern. You're lucky you were a scrub that could only play football for a couple years in high school, or you wouldn't be glorifying this kind of hitting. Destroys mens brains and their ability to be a normal father and family member after a career of playing like this. Rob Gronkowski isn't even 40 yet and he's basically a vegetable
@@turkey4957 Guess I'm just old school, I joined the Marine Corps, and my mentality helped me to be able to push myself harder and do things most wouldn't even attempt. There is a need for all outlooks, the ones that won't put themselves out there and the ones that will. Brains fine and I raised four kids. Now when we played tackle football with no pads during pick your choice PT I did ease up.
"D.J. Swearinger hitting Andre Ellington" I watch a lot of NFL but not a lot of college football so it's always surreal to see clips of players of people who went on to have full NFL careers squaring off against each other
There was a time when I was much younger that I would have thought this was awesome. Now I can't imagine thinking these kinds of hits were ever entertaining.
Today's football is girlie!! No targeting, no head shots, no clotheslines, no spearing, no bump and run, no Fred Williamson "hammer" blows, no late hits, no tripping. Bring back the REAL MEN OF THE 60s!!
This is the way footballs should be played!!!!! Defense means don't take a risk or you can get the pain. Today's game is all about offense. They are not scared to come down the middle because they know they'll get the distance and the penalty. F that! Light em up I say!
If Metchie wasn't such a damned good receiver for Bama he probably should have played defense with that hit to jar that ball loose on the INT from Florida. That is a hit I could watch all day.
1:10 gotta respect the qb. Huge hit, get's up and almost makes the tackle despite probably seeing double.
Yes indeed
one tough MF
Came here to say this. He has earned my respect.
Literally came straight to the comments after seeing that lol
im genuinely mind blown
“YOU GOT BBQ BACK THERE? AND DIDNT INVITE ME?! HURT MA FEELINGS!”😂😂😂☠️
one of the greatest commentator quotes 😂
Iconic. Gus Johnson is the man.
“Looks like he was shot with a elephant gun” on the first one 😂
eric collins the goat. Charlotte legend
They allow them to hit shoulder to chest.
That hit on Cam Rising was brutal to see in-person. The whole stadium exploded when that hit happened.
Hell yeah, SUU!
Yeah I was there aswell
That hit was crazy for sure.
we still won tho
The play by Clowney against Michigan might be the greatest defensive play I’ve ever seen.
Right?? He was like a second away from just taking the handoff directly from the qb
Single play he’s living off of. Hasn’t lived up to the hype in NFL.
100% agree

I saw that final hit on Rising in person, heard it from 70 yards away. That man is a warrior, came up laughing about it. Gotta love football.
Commenting because this is such a good video. All truly big hits I haven't seen 10 times in other videos before, good quality, well edited, nice replays, no annoying music or ads. ☺☺☺☺
1:13 announcer says "You don't want that smoke" and then the VT qb gets absolutely drilled
He's in tune with the culture
Cam Rising's long flowing locks makes that something else.
He deserved to get laid out just for havin that hairdo tbh
@@GORILLA_PIMP that hairdo went on to demolish the southern crybabies afterwards
That first one never fails to crack me up.
"OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!"
these hits seem more brutal than the nfl, and there are no penalties! crazy...
They are and I think its because of the major differences in skill level. You've got newbs from psychology class vs top NFL prospects playing football. A little bit of an exaggeration, but you get my point..
This is over years span though, you could make the same video with NFL hits x100
@@michaelayeni177 CC. B C C
It is college kids... of course, the hits are more brutal compared to the NFL. Collage pride is on the line!
There were plenty of penalties on those hits, but the way this video is edited, glorifies the hit instead of chastising it.
These hits hurt more than stubbing my toe 💀
That clowney hit will always rain supreme as the hardest in cfb. Something ridiculous would have to happen to top that

@@macabree5856 facts brother. Back before EVERYTHING was a flag 🙄
Even better with the first down fiasco that happened right before the hit
biggest ball don't lie play in the history of sports
yeah, it will be very hard to surpass what clowney did. i love how he snagged the ball with his left paw after causing the fumble too
5:25 might be the scariest hit on a kicker ever
College football has brutal hits compared to NFL
They let the boys play down there. NFL has to protect its investments lol.
Because most watch their blind spots. College is more inexperienced
Back before they changed up the rules high school football practice used to be crazy 😂
No way bro
College players are tryna make it big, nfl players tryna last and roll in doe
Clowneys tackle gets me every time, damn 😮
Wow, Really Surprised about this video, congrats on making a great video
Great video. Well done.
College hits are fucking brutal. All of the strength of nfl players but without the form blocking/tackling is a crazy combo
Favorite line of all season
You got BBQ back there and you didn't invite me lmaoo
Looking at brock purdy take that hit like a champ 6:24 now look at him on the road to e super bowl rookie year so inspirational
now hes in the super bowl.
That Utah quarterback pac 12 championship hit was crazy watching live.
That Kenny bell hit was crazy!!!
I love the plays!
Love it. Talk about getting your sinuses cleared.
Imagine celebrating after laying out a dude that isn't looking at you 😂
You got bbq back there?! And didn't invite me?!? Hurt! My! Feelings!!😂
The moment you realize that Lawrence Taylor's whole highlight-reel consists of every last one of these.
Great vid!
fire vid bro
These hits are on point by the defense. Goodness
Definitely should include Nigel Bradham (FSU) hit against LaRon Byrd (Miami). Originally called targeting because it looked so brutal, but was later retracted by the officials head office post-game. Nasty, but clean hit.
1:14-He don’t want that smoke
“Oh what a hit”😂😂😂
CTE is no joke. The NFL should invest a billion into CTE proof helmets to protect investments. These young kids are getting stronger and stronger and hit hard AF.
That beat you got at the beginning is tough
There’s a reuben foster kickoff tackle that was huge too
4:23 that one was like a hockey hit bro body checked him 😂
“Boom! That’s football” 😂😂😂 dude on the ground someone’s son fresh outta high school just gasping for air with 5 cracked ribs piercing his lungs hahahahaha
I still get chills every time I see that hit from Clowney.
Lmao that kicker got Blasted 🤣
Im kinda surprised that some of them manage to immediately get back up after taking these hits
You know they have brain damage though

Damn that first one I was expecting Jim Ross to yell spear spear omg he's been broken in half.
“He don’t want that smoke OH WHAT A HIT!!”
Something about that Clowney play just sticks out to me above all others.
Probably cuz right after he just casually reaches over an picks up the ball with one hand like hes grabin a wrench lmfao
These hits are amazing! This is the kind of stuff I want to see on each and every play. Big hits should be rewarded, not penalized.
Get hit like that yourself each and every play reason why your watching you could never.
Nah the Utah one going in the books for sure, called it when I saw the game immediately
I remember the Clowney one like it was yesterday!!!
hey really good video what is the song at the beginnig and the end of the video?
Hornets announcer took me by surprise in the first clip.
Bro can you do “off by an inch” where if the way one more yard they would’ve got the td/ points
Crazy at 5:20 that blindside block would be so taboo today but the announcers are calling a dude getting killed a football play back then
SCar with two! Nice.
Literally "Foaming and Drooling"!
There was a time when I was much younger that I would have thought this was awesome. Now I can't imagine thinking these kinds of hits were ever entertaining.
KENNY BELL!!! TURNER!!! TOUCHDOWN NEBRASKA. THATS THE BEST BLOCK WEVE SEEN ALL YEAR!!! That dude got absolutely LEVELED.
And absolutely agree with the announcer that should never have been flagged.
3:00 make sure you don't play on an empty stomach, so that you can barf your food up later like this guy did 😂
I don't know if anything will beat the hit Lewis Cine had on Kyle Pitts had a few years back. Absolutely laid him out.
2:16 "You got bbq back there? and you didn't invite me?" will forever be one of my favorite calls in all of sports history
That dude getting hit at 1:30 good on him for being so quick to get up and try for the tackle impressive
1:50 has got to be one of my favouriute tackles of all time.
John Metchie will maybe forever have my favorite tackle/hit by a wide receiver.
Vicious hit. Crazier in slow motion lol
Mine will forever be Kenny Bells
I was wondering if the Wisconsin Nebraska game would be in here. That shit was nasty
Unfortunately, Taylor Martinez & that hit were our only highlights.
I love how players get all hyped by hitting someone who doesn't get a chance to brace themselves...
Keep it up Highlight Reel
could watch that hit on cam rising all day long
5:58 Legend has it he’s still buried there.
Nahhh, that kenny bell block is still to this day the hardest hit ive ever seen live. That shit was crazy mf got cremated😭😭😭😭
1:13 you don’t want that smoke 😂🤣💨
“That’s football what is he supposed to do” just spoke volumes for the entire nfl
3:45 got hit soo hard the ball is still spinning 🤣
lol brock purdy getting lit up even in random youtube videos today
you are the best
that schooler hit is legendary wreckem
Last video was the best. Dude was in absolute pain. Luckily, adrenaline kicked in.
all the hits looked clean too. you don't need to play dirty to lay the lumber. that's football!
The guy who got hit on the blocked punt totally had a concussion, you could see him wobbling and then just collapsing.
That was a field goal lol
But yeah that hit was brutal
The last hit he faded that
Clowneys tackle gets me every time, damn . That first one never fails to crack me up..
I can't believe everyone seems to have forgotten about the hit on Jahvid Best by a Maryland CB. Best was hit so hard, he threw up on the field.
That Denzel ward hit came with the wrongest ejection of the season
That must be a weird feeling. Like being smacked by a train. I’ve been hit but not that hard 😂
bruh that kid in the Cody prewitt hit is me😭
Cam rising one is funny af
Taking all these brutal hits and still don’t make it to the NFL is just crazy
All of them are going to love CTE
I keep hearing Bobby Boucher when I see these hits.

Came to watch that Clowney hit. Maybe the best hit in College football
Can riseing is a true running back
The last one I watched and I felt out of my seat in disbelief, one of the best and biggest hits I’ve ever seen.
Fight on Trojans ✌️
Was an awesome hit but Rising hung on tight to that ball and then popped right up like nothin. GO UTES
What's the intro song? I have it in my head but can't think of it
Isn’t 3:19 pass interference? J me or what
Not playing the ball, leading with the helmet 😂
I was thinking the same thing since the ball hits him in the back as he's making the hit.
should be but i think this was over 10 years ago
If Metchie wasn't such a damned good receiver for Bama he probably should have played defense with that hit to jar that ball loose on the INT from Florida. That is a hit I could watch all day.
QBs signing death warrants for their own receivers. Good lord!
It’s men’s game 🔥🔥🔥
Damn. The NFL don't hit like this anymore.
