I told another friend of mine tonight that Christian M. may just be one of the greatest football players ever. He is that good. Enjoy it guys because most white athletes never get the chance. Most colleges didn't want McCaffrey and that sums it up right there. What an incredible player he is and he is just as amazing as a human being off the field. Smart, polite, cordial and humble. What superstars anywhere exhibit these rare abilities?

McCaffrey finishes with 389 All-purpose yards! 192 yards rushing on 29 carries...1 catch for 49 yd TD...& 148 kickoff return yds (including 98 yd TD)

Nelson Spruce had 10 rec 120 yards late 4th qtr
Casey Martin 8-104-1
Ron Willoughby 11-105
Drew Morgan 7-84-1
TE-Hunter Henry 7-129-2

FCS
Brady Mengarelli (So.Dakota St) 20 carries for 187 yards & WR-Jake Weinke 9-118-1
TE-Beau Sandland(Montana St) 7-163-2

What will be the excuse by the NFL power structure to not make McCaffrey a starting NFL running back? From what happened to that other undeniably-talented white Stanford RB who should have been a starter from day one of his NFL career, Toby Gerhart, he will probably get drafted by a team with a black RB who is ensconced as the starter, like Atlanta, Minnesota, KC, Pittsburgh, Chicago, whoever, and then wither on the bench for his entire unnecessarily short career. Sorry if that sounds pessimistic, but obviously the NFL isn't going to let him be a starting RB.

I wonder if whoever drafts him ends up turning him into the next Wes Welker or Julian Edelman, as it is more acceptable for great white athletes to still play wide receiver than running back.

Turned off the NU-Wis game with seconds to go thinking the Badgers pulled one out, but to my surprise the Wildcats caught one hell of a break. But the Cats have no offense, and Vitale is criminally underused. I also tried to watch the Brown-Columbia game and it was horrible almost high school level football. Compared to what I seen yesterday of Harvard-Yale which seemed like two good teams I don't see how any of those games are competitive between the top schools in the misnamed Patriot League and the bottom dwellers. Of course who would want to go to those type of schools anyway, if you go to a bottom dweller none of the students go to the games, so obviously an athlete is hated on campus, and if you go to a good team such as Harvard or Yale I have heard you have a target on your back that only believe it or not the admins and boosters keep the players from a star chamber trial for just breathing Ivy tainted air.

The always reliable Caste whore, Herbstreit, doesn't even have 10-0 Iowa in his top 6:

1-Clemson
2-Bama
3-Michigan St.
4-Oklahoma
Next 2
ND
Baylor


Of course he had to let everyone know that not only were they not in his top four, but had to add "Next 2 ND Baylor" to get his indirect point across about how he feels about them.

Just also saw now where another BSPN "analyst" Paul Finebaum, has the same top four as Herbstreit.

Looks like Iowa will have to beat Nebraska and then win the Big10 Championship game to be assured a spot.

Petulant Ohio State RB, Ezekiel Elliot, says he's "going pro" after whining about his utilization in their loss against Michigan State.

It looks like he'll be a perfect fit for a black player in the NFL...barely literate and self-aggrandizing, all along with having a victim mentality. Perhaps he'd fit in best with the Dolphins?

I love seeing the wheels fall apart of uber caste whore extraordinaire urban Meyers team. The best story of this football season was cardale jones fall - this was a player that the entire sports world had as a sure fire 1st rounder, if not the 1st qb taken in the 2016 draft than the first player overall potentially taken. Every single "expert", sports program, article and drunk white fan were all clamoring for him to go pro after three games last year. he come back this year - is given the starting position, playing in the exact same scheme he did last year and has been a huge bust and replaced as the starting qb. Nothing change at Ohio state - still the same scheme and players yet everyone says he isn't the right fit for the system now.

Elliot is just made that a better white player should now be leapfroggIng him in the heisman conversation.

Agreed, someone will probably make him a WR because he is so talented he will help someone a lot. Maybe once he breaks through as a WR or kick returner he will get a chance as a RB, due to injuries to the "real" RBs on his team.

I don't think we will have to worry about this for a while. Christian McCaffrey is only a sophmore. He will be back for at least one more year but with his dedication, intelligence and loyalty I think he will stay all four years and graduate like Toby did. The kid is superman. There is nothing he can't do. In a fair world he is a top 5 draft pick in the 1st round but we all know that won't happen. Would love to see him end up in New England. That would be incredible!

Seeing Ohio St. lose was great, I think Michigan has a great shot at beating them next week. Notre Dame should also lose to Stanford in a game with big Heisman implications for McAffrey.

I cannot believe Oklahoma St. lost to Baylor. The Bedlam game has Heisman implications for Baker Mayfield as well.

It looks like Christian and Baker are the only two white players with a shot as winning the Heisman. Of course the media has anointed the black RBs from Florida St. and Alabama as the only legitimate Heisman candidates. If it comes down to a white stanford RB and a black Alabama RB like it did with Gerhart and Ingram I think we all know the unfortunate outcome.

Baker left the game early yesterday with a concussion, I believe...some type of head trauma. His status next week against Okla State (and now Heisman chances) are in doubt...

If McCaffrey breaks the NCAA All-Purpose Yardage record and still loses to some SEC affletic RB, I wouldn't be a bit surprised. I think Gerhart had about 400 more yards rushing than the affletic SEC winner that year. If the same injustice happens to McCaffrey, I'm hoping some more eyes will be opened. The Caste media is already saying that his chances are not very good because of his lack of exposure due to Stanford playing in the PAC12 and thus late start times. It's always something...
