After Emmett Johnson did what he did against UCLA, the Nebraska football running back is finally catching the eyes of national analysts. Johnson is second in the country in rushing; he leads the nation in total yards and didn't get much mention until Saturday night.
Finally, after a game when he ran for 100 yards and had 100 yards receiving, it seems like people are realizing just how good he could be. Huskers head coach Matt Rhule said he thinks EJ will be in the NFL next year. And at halftime of the Cornhuskers' 28-21 win over the Bruins, Fox Sports anchors were blown away by what he'd already done in the first two quarters.
