At Wisconsin, we pound the rock.
In 2012, three Wisconsin running backs showed the nation why Wisconsin could (or should) be referred to as "Running back-U". Senior Montee Ball, Junior James White, and rsFreshman Melvin Gordon together accounted for over 3,500 yards, averaging 6 yards per carry, and scoring 39 touchdowns. They were, for all intents and purposes, most of Wisconsin's offense that season.
And what a memorable season it was, both for an unusually troublesome and slow start, as well as for the rushing explosion which happened later. Montee Ball, the leader of the group, surprised many by returning to Madison after a historic 2011 campaign. Despite suffering an off-season attack & concussion, he led the unit in yards and touchdowns, on his way to becoming the NCAA's All-Time touchdown king, one of several records he holds. He was a unanimous First-Team All-American selection by numerous publications, as well as the Doak Walker Award winner for being the nation's best running back.
On the other side, James and Melvin both displayed greatness in their own right, most often with big-play ability and speed. All together they were a fearsome threesome for opponents, and one which Badger fans enjoyed watching all season.
Their success was due in large part to the play of their offensive line as well as their coaching by Thomas Hammock.

Down the road from the three playing together James White plays for the New England Patriots, Monte Ball plays for the Denver Broncos, and Melvin Gordon III plays for the San Diego Chargers. Yeah, there was some talent there.
Sad that Montee hasn't had any success in the NFL
dacrosber yea unfortunately he became an alcoholic but he got his life back on track and is a great father to his son 😁
my cousin (melvin gordon) gonna be a best next year
You sho was right
Lmao you was right. And he’s not a bad nfl player either😉
His 2014 year was the closest anyone’s gotten to Barry sanders level in college
In Super Bowl 51 James white did so good
Ethan Funk vlogs he should have been MVP - accounted for more points and more vital to the overall offense
As usual, a great Wisconsin video. I look forward to some major highlights this upcoming season.
Corey Clement behind these guys. then Jonathan Taylor..Thats fricking insane!!
Fantastic vid with a soundtrack that enhances, not detracts. Keep it up!
Sick video, can't wait for next season!
One of the best ever...
Melvin Gordon is going to be dominant for the next three years. Watch out, the next great Badger back.
Hope to see Gordon take a majority of the carries next season
gordon is like a hybrid of ball and white only better... hes can break tackles better than ball and hes faster and more elusive than white. bottom line if he cleans up his technique we are talking huge possibilities
The crazy thing is that in another 2 years that backfield is going to be this good or better. By then Jonathan Taylor will be an unstoppable force, and when he gets tired they but in braderick shaw, a guy who would be a star if Taylor wasn’t there, and if need be they can put in groshek, who frankly is one of the hardest runners I’ve ever seen
What's crazy is that he split carries for every season... He could've been at 90-100 if he was their consistent starter for three years
That stiff-arm from Ball against Nebraska. Jesus.
It’s sad that he drank his career away oh well football is not life
If the Badgers get consistent play from the offensive line, I think that Melvin Gordon could be just as good as Montee Ball next year.
Didn't I say it months ago on here? Melvin Gordon is a top level beast! Fourth in the country in running with 477 yards at 12.9ypc in 3 games.
Melvin Gordon is a beast.
nate Gerry caught him from behind twice,showing the speed of Gerry,described earlier in the game by a commentator as not having much speed,bigot
How could I download this video? I love it , being a highschool running back this motivates me everytime I watch it.
For the few of you who think James White has no break away speed, watch his segment again.
Love this video!! On Wisconsin
I hate what the Patriots did to James White. And I hate what Montee Ball did to himself.
James white was a Super Bowl mvp wtf are you talking about
Wow Big 10 football and not 1 highlight against Michigan nor OHIO STATE. Only 2 clips against Penn State. Very misleading competition for these men
This was all thanks to that O LINE
Melvin Gordon is the future when Ball leaves to the Nfl
Awesome video
Montee Ball was a stud
More like felix jones darren mcfadden and peyton hillis
Thanks! Your videos carry me through until the next season.
Gordon is the future!
Love watching these guys run. It’s hard to keep your eyes off them. But if you can, watch the o-line, backs, and receivers just demolishing people with their blocking.
Forgot how good #28 was!
And oh btw, Derek Watt was fullback.
You should do a video on montee balls carreer
The third RB this year? Is it actually going to be a QB?
They got a 4 star qb named dj gillins, and he is a dual threat. But they're redshirting him.
BoonieChi Bret Yeah, hopefully McEvoy will improve his throwing mechanics, no doubt, he is elusive, especially for his height.
Imagine if Georgia's backfield was healthy. All of them. Michel, Chubb, Marshall, Gurley, Douglas....
Man I wish I could run like that /:
bro you gotta start making these again lol
Monte ball they will never have another back that good
lol
Wardog12bang .....enter Jonathan Taylor
Mmmm, fuck 2:10
What is the instrumental for the third runningback ? And nice vid by the way
Plus Derek watt as a fullback
Nice video, man. Sick beats, too. Where'd you get those?
sounds like music from pirates of the carribean
THANK GOD WE GOT RID OF THOSE HORRENDOUS RED HELMETS
This is even better than the 2010 running backs' vid. Nice job!
i t
I'm a fan of the RB position(my favorite actually) and love to watch Wisconsin's offense. I think Melvin Gordon is the second coming of Ball and while he may not put up the ridiculous TD number, he will go well over 1600yds if they keep feeding him. James White is nice in his own right but he has no power nor breakaway speed. He looks to be either equal to or a tad slower than both Gordon and Ball.
6:08: Why I want the Packers to draft Montee Ball.
Cowboys are stupid if they pass him.
Soundtrack info? Thanks.
whats the instrumental to melvin gordon?? and sick video
Ik
Great work again on the video, fantastic!
i mean, i really enjoy your bideos!
Fantastic Video! Keep Them Coming
Badgers are the best
When are you gonna do this past season?
***** You know, Vonte Jackson switched back to TB, so we could have three in the backfield. It would be nice if coach Andersen tried some triple option, spread offense in the offense scheme.
melvin gordon
Hopefully my falcons pick up this guy
2 out of 3 aint bad
+surgeyou123 2 out of 3 what? Bust?
no
Best trio backfield ever in college was in 2007 Arkansas Razorbacks: McFadden, Jones, and Hillis
We always find a good way to lose I tell what but 🐗WooPigSooie!
How can ANY black man play ANY sport for ANY school in Wisconsin?
Why'd you say that leif
