I think Gurley did as every rb is taught to do and the lb just made an instinctive and unconventional move that won the game for them. Iow, No matter what or where, if Gurley was in his way, the lb was gonna jump up and throw and his hands up. There was no reasonable offense to stop that defense.

Yeah. It was a great play. The common approach is to go low, and the only way to change that result low would have been to strike quicker.
The less likely path would be to "catch" the defender and ride him wide (allowing the opportunity to occupy his hands). But when you watch replays where running backs do this, they are usually getting run over or not able to engage the block long enough prior to a sack.
Gurley did his best as a freshman.

The SEC East was pretty freaking good that year. You had 3 legitimate top 10 teams and a "good" Vanderbilt team.
