Everyone knew Georgia Southern would try to throw the football all over the field Saturday night against Nebraska. 

Everyone was shocked about Georgia Southern's ability to run the ball against the Huskers: over 200 yards on the ground and almost eight yards per carry.

In this Doc's Diagnosis presented by Centris Federal Credit Union, Dr. Rob Zatechka breaks down the outstanding blocking by Georgia Southern and the poor tackling by the Huskers.

The play: Gerald Green's 47-yard touchdown run to put the Eagles up 28-21 four minutes before halftime. Georgia Southern went on to win by 45-42.
