Incredible statistic

[JTrain]

This is extremely rare. Three games in, Nebraska has THREE rushers in the top ten in yards/carry nationally (6.25 carry/game min.):

You keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and Nebraska to have a bad day at the office. That's not going to happen next week, and watching Kansas State play Iowa State (the same team that got steamrolled by Iowa 35-6), I think we might have to wait for Texas to get more realistic-looking rushing stats.

Awesome!

[bleedNUred]

Possibly the fastest backfield in the nation with a solid O-Line. Love it.

[GMoose]

We got a STABLE....

[kansas husker]

not that incredible, but check out the front stat page of CBS Sports and look who leads the nation in rushing TDs.

[bleedNUred]

Good call.^

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

Woo hoo! Gaining confidence.

[bshirt]

haha....just bloody LOVE IT!!

[mmmtodd]

not sure what its worth/means/whatever, but burkhead has by far the shortest "long" in that group.

[TheCheshireCat]

Rainey is up there in rushing yards as well I noticed.

[kansas husker]

not sure what its worth/means/whatever, but burkhead has by far the shortest "long" in that group.

 

Good point, without reading too much into it, I would think that it means Rex has been very consistant while the others have a long run that is somewhat skewing the stats. Rex has constitantly been running the ball well nothing skewing the stats

[zoogs]

Rex having the shortest long run is actually pretty impressive.

[roundegotrip]

That is really incredible. We look dominant in all three phases of the game. I am giddy. GIDDY.

[GHOST]

Rex and Roy will exeed the 300 mark this weekend bet on that. And if their still up and helathy for the texas game Iam gonna say all 3 have a big game against the horns
