Tiger1995 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I’m just curious if any of you would know who holds the record for the most tackles in a single game. My son had 29 tackles 5 sacks in his last game and that spawned a question from a friend and myself on what was the single game record. I know I’ve seen some guys get in the 30s before Damarvion Overshown was one of them with 32 his jr year. Do any of you guys know this answer? @Smoak maybe you can answer it.

cotton84 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 In recent years they have done away with the “assisted tackle” thus they should have 2 sets of records. Now, if 6 guys get off the tackle pile, 6 players get a tackle in the stats for that one play - used to not be that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagleborn Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Hard to say. Depends on coaching staff. Some get credit for tackle if they touch the pile. my guess would prolly be #70 from Sabine. @Bclove05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger1995 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 It’s crazy I look on DCTF and there’s all kinds of stats and record but nothing on a single game tackles record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue82 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Tackle numbers is probably the most overinflated stat in football. A kid can run in right before the whistle and lay down on the pile and get credit for a tackle. I think a lot of coaches probably do that to encourage kids to swarm to the football. Maybe it works, idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattStepp Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 We don't keep the tackle record on DCTF because: 1) its way too subjective 2) Many coaches simply just don't send in defensive stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destry Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Is it more important for a kid to get credit or for the defense to say “we stopped him”? Something about team instead of “me” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darktower Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 We had a kid get 37 (tackles plus assist) in one game against Edgewood in the mid 90's--- We were really bad offensively and thus were on the field a ton defensively and if he didnt make a tackle the other team usually scored. he did play D1 football and had a good chance to play professional before he hurt his back his senior year in college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
