Bizarre Trivia
#1
Only 7 players in college football history had a game with 200 yards rushing and 100 yards receiving.

3 of them played in the NFL last year.

Christian McCaffrey would have been the only one I got. he had 207 rushing and 105 receiving against USC in '15.

Since this is in the Bengals forum some of you might have guessed that Joe Mixon was another.  He had 263 rushing and 114 receiving against Texas Tech in '16.

But I bet none of you would have got the third.  Richie James had a great season as a WR for Middle Tennessee State in '16 (105 rec 1625 receiving yards), but in his 28 college games he only rushed for a total of 554 yards and 5 tds.  But on Nov 26, 2016 the 5'9", 185 lbs James filled in at RB against Florida Atlantic.  He carried the ball 22 times for 207 yards and 3 tds.  He also caught 4 passes for 120 yards and another td.  

So far in two NFL seasons James only has 15 receptions, but two of them have been 50+ yards tds, and last year he  had 53 punt and kickoff returns for the Forty-Niners.
