Um, as far as the MWC running back comparisons with Yocum go, I think this should be VERY limited and exclusive company....

4573 career rushing yards
25 career 100+ games
159 ypg in 2013
60 career rushing TDs

Just for comparison sake, I did a quick tally of Cecil Brimmage's career rushing stats from IC's website.  Had to pull them from end of year write-ups because IC doesn't seem to have a career statistics/record board on their website.

4,020 career rushing yards
39 career TDs
157 yards/gm in 2013

Not sure if Yocum missed many games during his career.  If not and if Brimmage had stayed healthy during his junior year (which can never be assumed for a football player, especially an RB), he would have been close to Yocum's career yardage.  However, big difference in rushing TDs.wow

Thanks.  My question was basically rhetorical in nature.

I know... but Tanney doesn't hold every record, so I thought I'd post it

Picks of the week?  Anyone?  Anyone?

[Maverick]

Week 4 Games

Cornell @ Ripon - RC
Illinois C. @ St. Norbert - SNC
Lake Forest @ Beloit - LFC
Lawrence @ Knox - KC
Macalester @ Grinnell - MC
Monmouth @ Carroll - MC

There you go scottie!  I hope f-dad is reading and sees that I picked his Foresters to win this week.  Looking forward to seeing how these North/South match-ups play out this weekend--appears to be some quality games in there.  Good luck Fighting Scots!

[scottie]

Yes, two potential GOWs that will go a long way toward the playoff match-ups.

[TitanPride]

I'm taking St. Norbert and Monmouth in the big game matchups.  IC's defense is a huge cause for concern, and Monmouth had two very impressive OOC wins.

Thank  you Titian
You may not know but you are going contrary to Pat Coleman's pick of Carroll over Monmouth in the DIII Triple Take column this morning

Actually, I only said Carroll would be on people's radar, which they have not been to date.

[grboob]

Pat,

So you are not picking winners anymore?
