Oklahoma football: Rodney Anderson flying under the radar among top RBs

Anderson had a career-high 201 yards in the Sooners College Football Playoff loss to Georgia, averaging almost eight yards per carry against a team that ranked 12th in the country last season in rushing defense.

The redshirt junior from Katy, Texas, was an absolute beast the second-half of the season a year ago. He was doing it all, running and catching the ball, and he led the Sooners with 1,161 rushing yards, despite seeing limited playing time until the sixth game of the season.

Regardless of his exceptional second-half performance last season, Anderson barely draws a mention in discussions about the best running backs in the country coming into the 2018 season.
