College Footballs Greatest Running Backs
College Football's Greatest Running Backs

20. Marshall Faulk - In one of the most prolific performances of his entire career, he ran all over the University of the Pacific in just his second collegiate game. In 37 carries, he racked up 386 yards and scored seven touchdowns, both NCAA records for freshmen, and built on this performance throughout the year. He compiled one of the greatest freshman seasons in NCAA history, gaining 1,429 yards rushing, with 23 total touchdowns (21 rushing), and 140 points scored. Although in the next two seasons, he would not replicate the success of his freshman year, he showed in his final season at SDSU he was still an all-purpose back, catching 47 passes for 640 yards, which aided him in ranking 3rd in all-purpose yardage that year and 2nd in scoring. Faulk left San Diego State University with many of the school's offensive records, amongst them 62 career touchdowns, which is the 8th most in NCAA history. Many experts still consider Faulk one of the greatest all around athletes in Professional Sports.

Broncos aim to become bowl eligible


Tim Hiller has played very well throughout the year.
The Western Michigan Broncos will try become bowl eligible when they host the Ball State Cardinals Tuesday night at Waldo Stadium.

It has been a nightmare of a season for the Cardinals, who close out their campaign on Tuesday. Ball State has lost 10 of its 11 matchups this season, and heads into this game with a three-game losing skid. The most recent loss was an embarrassing, 35-3 setback to Central Michigan. It has been an amazing turn of events for Ball State, which finished last year with a 12-2 mark, and a perfect 8-0 ledger in Mid-American Conference action.

The Broncos head into this contest fresh off a 35-14 victory over Eastern Michigan. It was the fifth win on the year for WMU, which is now 4-3 in conference action. With a win Tuesday the Broncos will become bowl eligible for the fourth time in the last five years.
