Nick Dzubnar returns an interception at Sacramento State last season. By Owen Main

Nick Dzubnar is really good at finding and tackling people. Those of us in San Luis Obispo know it. The Big Sky Conference has found out about it over the past few years. Now, the San Diego Chargers are starting to find out that Dzubnar’s nose for the ball might be something worth holding onto.

While the Chargers have something of a glut of linebackers, including former Notre Dame star Manti Te’o, the team and fans have been pleased with what they’ve seen from Dzubnar.

Last night, he led the Chargers with seven tackles, five solo, and a sack.

This ESPN.com write-up of last night’s game calls Dzubnar “a surprise performer who looks amazing.”

SDBoltReport.com projected Dzubnar making the team as the final rostered player way back in June.

Dzubnar was part of a Cal Poly defense who came up with big stop after big stop en route to a Big Sky Conference title and FCS playoff berth three seasons ago. The linebacking corps of Dzubnar, Cameron Ontko, and Johnny Millard two seasons ago was one of the most underrated around.

The Mustangs have had other linebackers too over the past few seasons — Kenneth Jackson comes to mind.

There is still a big question as to whether or not Dzubnar will make the Chargers team, but for at least a night, the NFL had the “Sasquach” unleashed. We’re all better for it.

Dzubnar had a good night last night. http://t.co/I4WnEzxtbj via @sharethis
