funny how we remember things. i remember that season as being one of the best i've seen, and by a freshman, no less.
i also consider mcgahee 02 season one of the best ever. looking back at stats (1753 yds, 28 tds, 6.2 y/c, 27 rec, 355 yds, 0 td) they're good, even great, but not really in comparison to this list.
Those 2 have something in common: they burst onto the scene. Peterson, because he was a true FR, and McGehee, because Frank Gore was supposed to be the big replacement for Clinton Portis, but he tore up his knee. McGehee had been the "other" backup in 01 - the one that didn't average 9.1 ypc.
