15 carries for about 233, 4 minutes and change left in 2nd quarter.

He's gotta be right up there with Mariotta for the Heisman.

Broke LT's record.... In 3 quarters

I will never understand what Wisconsin was doing in the second half of the LSU game.

Add Barrett and you might have the top three. Prescott is done.

Something was wrong with him, tweaked his hip I think on that long run to star the 3rd quarter.

If Wisconsin wins that game, the playoff committee is looking at things completely different this year. Kind of crazy to think about.

He was injured. Had his only bad game of the season the next week against a very bad team.

I heard an astounding stat earlier this week -- Gordon has been averaging over 8 YPC vs. 8-man boxes this year.

I don't know how many 8-man boxes he's faced so far vs. Nebraska, but he's averaging 14.9 YPC through the first half, so I'm sure that average has gone up.

Wisconsin does a good job loosening up the middle of opposing defenses with outside runs and their overall play calling.

Eh, he missed a half when the team needed him the most against LSU. Is he a bad person for getting hurt? No. But as a running back there are very few games you can swing the balance (vs your backup) from a L to a W and he missed one game where he definitely could.

Plus 2 fumbles this game.

Gordon just broke the record (Jamaal Charles - 290) for rushing yards in a game vs. Nebraska.

I said top three. Right now Barrett is in the top three.

Did I say he was ahead of the other two IMO? I did not. Reading comprehension ftw.
