Thank you, Theo.

You were just an absolute BEAST tonight. The whole team was awesome, but thank you for being the engine. Incredible play tonight!!

He was amazing.

Theo ran possessed today! He has done everything this coaching staff has asked of him and has not disappointed! So impressed with him and everyone else on the team! What a phenomenal year!

 

[NDfan12]

Theo is amazing..this defense is amazing. This team is amazing. Still got work ahead of them though but I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE OUR IRISH PLAYING FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP ONCE AGAIN !!!!!!!

 

[Rocky2820]

One of the best RB performances I have ever seen - at any level.

 

[IrishLax]

INCREDIBLE individual performance.

 

[irishff1014]

He was so awesome tonight!

 

[eNDzone]

Way to fight for those extra yards.

I'm a Wood guy ( not because I don't like Theo, but because usually Cierre looks better)... But by the end of the first Q I was screaming at the TV for Theo to get the ball... He hit a different level tonight... What was BK doing on that last drive btw???

Same here. I usually whine about Wood getting too few touches. Tonight, Riddick was amazing. He just doesn't give up. He isn't really powerful, but is elusive and persistent. He was near legendary tonight.

 

[mick2]

yes he's turned into a serious player for us!! Gonna miss him. But we have him for one more game!!!!

 

[Jebediah Springfield]

This dude BRINGS IT.

Not the biggest or strongest guy but he plays like a beast.

 

[Junkhead]

Nothing against Cierre (I really wanted him back next year), but Theo ran like a man possessed today. He won me over this year, what a flat-out competitor.

Theo's played like that his whole ND career...he's just never gotten as many opportunities to show us. I love watching guys like him....he's not big and certainly not the fastest, but he finds ways to make big time plays and plays every play hard. I had the pleasure of also watching him play high school basketball and he was worth the price of admission. A longtime hs coach whose team had won dozens of state titles called him the best on the ball defender he's ever seen.

Thank you theo enjoy going to the national chanpionship.

 

[PraetorianND]

I will be naming my next child Theo. That's a promise.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

The best players bring it in the biggest games. Cierre brought it against Oklahoma and Theo brought it tonight. What a wonderful pair of running backs we have.

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

Proud of the kid...tough nut

 

[Mavericknyc1980]

Great game Theo. You will be forever remembered in ND lore for the display you.showed last night.

 

[Seanthornton]

I forget which USC Line backer it was that they showed but he was slow getting up and limping after Riddick plowed through him for a nice gain. I believe it was Mid 4th Qtr. Anyone else see that? They commented on it.

 

[rikkitikki08]

He made play after play last night. A few plays i thought he was stuffed and some how managed to get 5 or 6 yards. A game for the ages

I'm not a fan of bumping a player's thread unless it's injury, award, or something major, so I figured this is the best place for this article:

[no.1IrishFan]

Had to jump in on this thread. I was at the game in L.A., his performance in person was even more AWESOME!!!

Go Theo!!!!!!

I've never seen him run harder in a game in his career.

Theo was a man on a mission!!!!

Could one of the video experts here make a video of all of his carries against SC and post it on Youtube? His performance against SC - magnificent.
