He runs through...

 

5.6

yards per carry after Contact

Whether it be a defensive lineman, a linebacker or a defensive back - Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams just finds a way to keep on trucking through the first hit - averaging a nation’s best 5.6 yards per rush after contact. 

...around...

 

8.86

Yards Per Carry

What if I told you a running back could average nearly a first down every time he touched the ball? With a 8.86 yards per carry average this season (3rd in the country and 2nd among RBs), Josh Adams would be your guy! Not to mention he is the nation's leader in rush yards vs. FBS teams with a winning record.

...and past.

736

Yards After Contact

Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams faces numerous obstacles throughout his route, all trained to impede the timeliness of his delivery, yet he has piled up 736 yards rushing after contact. How good is 736 yards after contact? That yardage alone would rank him 31st in rushing yards in college football.

146.1

Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams simply accomplishes more in less time on the road. Adams ranks sixth in the FBS in yards rushing per game (146.1) despite sharing the highway with the rest of his fleet -- as he registers just 36% of Notre Dame's total carries.

Yards against ranked teams

When his best is needed, his best is received. Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams leads the nation in yards rushing vs. current AP-ranked foes with 502. He’s also the only running back in the nation to average at least 125.0 yards rushing per game with multiple games vs. current AP-ranked teams.

 

 

92.0

Yards afTer contact per game

Rain, snow, sleet, eight-man fronts and or run blitzes, Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams forges through all types of delays to the tune of 92.0 yards after contact per game. That total alone would rank him 35th in the FBS in yards rushing per game.

 

1,169

Rushing TDs Versus Ranked Teams

No running back in the nation has registered more rushing touchdowns vs. current AP-ranked foes than Heisman Trophy candidate Josh Adams.

 
 

"You don't just bring the guy down with an arm tackle. He just runs right through it. We saw it first-hand last year. He probably did the best job against us the entire year as far as running the football."
