When you set a single game offensive college football record, you've done something. With 50 games a weekend times 100 years of football times 15 weeks per season, that's a lot of games. Melvin Gordon of Wisconsin devoured the single game rushing yard record with 408 yards. That's almost half way to 1000! And this wasn't against Midwestern South Trinity college. This was against Nebraska. The proud Top 20 Cornhuskers who came into the game with only one loss. Gordon finished with the 208 yards on only 25 carries for a 16.5 average. And 4 TD. His longest was only 68, so without that he still had 340 yards. The Heisman trophy should probably come calling for Mr. Gordon, our Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
