2011 Week 1 - @ #11 Wisconsin

Hey everyone, it's Erich here. I have been asked to cover my season and career @ UNLV for you.

To start off, getting used to campus life has been pretty hectic. Entering camp left me bright eyed and wondering what I got myself into.

We head into week 1 against #11 ranked Wisconsin. I have never seen a stadium this sized or with this many people in it from the field level. It is daunting.

My first ever play from the line of scrimmage was a speed option and the QB kept it as Wisconsin knocked our lineman back.

My first ever carry was on our 2nd series where I picked up 4 yards.

I took a helmet off the thigh at the end of the first that gave me a severe dead leg, the trainers kept me off the field until the 3rd qtr.

That is where I had my first fumble recovery. It was another speed option, QB tosses it to me and it is knocked down by the Wisconsin defender. I scoop it up and scamper 40 yards with it. To bad it didn't add to my rushing stats.

We were destroyed by Wisconsin 37 - 7.

Nerves were a definite issue for me this game.

9 carries
13 yards
1 reception
5 yards
