Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey broke Barry Sanders' 27-year-old all-purpose yards record last Saturday in the Pac-12 title game against USC.
No he didn't.
Sanders' record (3,250) was set in 11 games in 1988 for Oklahoma State and it took McCaffrey 13 to reach his 3,496. If you include Sanders scintillating Holiday Bowl performance -- 222 yards rushing, 276 total yards -- he had 3,526.
Fine. McCaffrey will break that mark in the Rose Bowl Game Presented by Northwestern Mutual and in fewer touches, which is a better measure than games.
