Troy game - historical impact
Posted: Fri Sep 04, 2009 2:33 pm
Before the Troy game, I was struck at the number of current players capable of etching their names high on some all-time lists. Now that we posted a B!G win, I was interested to see what sort of progress some of them made.
Tyler Sheehan ... Passing yardage: Easily moved past Erich White and is now 457 yards behind Rich Dackin and 533 yards behind Omar. If he stays healthy and avoids a total melt down, he will almost certainly get to #2 on this list by year's end and probably my midseason.
Freddie Barnes ... Pass receptions: He moved up to number 8 on the all-time list, passing Kurt Gerling and Steve Sanders. Two more catches puts him above Reggie Thornton.
Roger Williams ... kick off returns: He is now the school's all-time leader in kick return yardage and is only seven returns away from tying the all-time record for most returns in career.
Chris Bullock ... Rushing yards: Didn't really do much there; his 18 yards moved him past Phil Polak (1971-73) to #18 on the all-time list.
Go Falcons!
