Near miss for Corum on another record

Submitted by joegeo on January 10th, 2024 at 9:49 PM

Bill Burnett for Arkansas set a mark of 23 consecutive games with a rushing touchdown from 1969-1970.

51 years later in 2021, Breece Hall scored his - rushing touchdown for the 24th consecutive time in his final game for Iowa State.

Blake Corum scored rushing touchdowns in all 15 games this year. He also scored rushing touchdowns in the first 11 games of last year. His two carries against osu last year testing out his knee broke the streak that would have been 26 games.

This isnt meant to be a downer, just another statistical example of Corum’s greatness.

Sort of unreported, but scoring his 26th and 27th rushing touchdowns broke the pre-official single season rushing record of 26 TDs set in 1902 by Albert Hernstein. The school didn't officially track stats until 1949, and that's why Haskins' 20 was considered the record. But now it's undisputedly Blake in '23

What do you guys think about his chances of success at tthe next level?

I am sure there is concern about his size, but his lateral speed and vision are definately top notch.
