Title: Crazy State of the week - RB Saquon Barkley leads the B1G in receiving
Post by: Big Beef Tacosupreme on September 28, 2017, 10:28:15 AM
He's 2nd in overall rushing yards, 2 yards behind Dobbins.

He leads the league in receptions, and receiving yards. 

He would also lead the SEC in receiving yards, in case ya thing something was screwy with the B1G.

He also leads the league in TDs.

With over 1000 all-purpose yards, SB is also exceeding greats like Barry Sanders and Christian McCaffrey to this point in their seasons.

I really enjoy watching the kid.  He's like Reggie Bush, Derrick Henry, and Knowshon Moreno all rolled into one.

At this point he's all but earned himself at least a spot in New York this December - I hope he wins it.

Bush + Moreno is actually a great comparison. He's built more like Moreno, but he's got a lot more speed than Moreno ever had, and he's a lot bigger and more physical than Bush but his ability as a pass catcher/route runner and his moves will remind you of Reggie.
He's the next Marshall Faulk IMO. I think he's got that kind of ability to rush for 1,000+ and receive for 1,000+ in the same season. Last guy to do that was Marshall Faulk I believe.
