In 2008, Nevada football did what they do best, which is running the ball. Colin Kaepernick and his tailback Vai Taua combined for 2,651 yards rushing and 32 touchdowns. Thankfully enough they also had a strong defense to rely on when times got tough.

This year’s 2015 team appears to be quite similar. Tyler Stewart and his two counterparts at tailback, Don Jackson and James Butler, are bringing back that 2008 ground-and-pound. The defense also looks to be beginning to follow in their predecessors’ footsteps.

While the Pack, at this point in the season, is 3-3 and 1-1 in conference play, they appear to be entering mid-season form.
