Answer me this:

In the Clemson game, ESPN flashed a graphic that Christian McCaffrey(Stanford) obtained the FBS record for "All-Purpose Yards" at 3,496. How is that possible? What am I missing? A lot of people have had more than that. Dak has had more than that the past two seasons. I've seen that figure used on other news sites too. Really, what am I missing?

ETA: I see that the record doesn't include passing stats. McCaffrey has some passing stats, but they aren't included in the 3,496.

Do all purpose yards exclude passing? As in, rushing, receiving, and return yards only?

 

[57stratdawg]

"All purpose" is ******** either way especially if a kid is returning kick offs.

Not BS

It's just got it's own category.

Everybody can't be the QB., etc.

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

You're thinking of "total yards", which includes passing yards.
