I was reading this article on rivals. Milestone performances during the BCS era. They show how many 1,000 yard rushers, how many 3,000 yard passers and how many 1,000 yard receivers. Hawaii had the most with 0 / 9 / 13. Oregon state and Texas Tech both tied with 18. Texas Tech 1 / 8 / 9. Oregon State was very well balanced with 8 / 5 / 5.
Ohio State only had a total of 9 but they have played for the national championship more than once. Same with USC but they had a total of 15. What this tells me is that while it may be fun to watch those 1,000 and 3,000 yard guys you really need to have a wide variety of options and a well balanced team. Not necessarily a team with stars. It helps to have both.
I'm thinking OSU is going to have a wide variety of options this year and stars. We may not completely turn the corner this year, but next year look out!!!!
