McCaffrey finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting and was a consensus All-American. He also amassed an FBS-record 3,864 all-purpose yards -- 8.9 yards per touch -- breaking Barry Sanders' record set at Oklahoma State in 1988. In the Rose Bowl against Iowa's formidable defense, he made a statement to East Coast Heisman voters who might have underestimated or simply missed his extraordinary skills because they were in bed during late-night Pac-12 games, rushing for 172 yards on 18 carries, catching four passes for 105 yards and returning a punt 66 yards for a touchdown in a blowout victory.
