Was it..28 games that we haven't given up a 100 yard rusher? (1 Viewer)

Heard them mention it in the broadcast.

That is NUTS. We've played some pretty elite RBs in that time.

Wonder if McCaffrey will break it this year (he didn't last year...twice).

CMC won't. We have a very special run D.

 

[SaintSeb]

32 games including today. Last 100 yard back against us was Perine.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

And that counts the playoffs as well.

The broadcast announcer did say 28 games today, but that contradicts several other broadcasts this season who have given a total that would put us at 32 now counting today's game.

Pretty crazy. All it takes is one of those big runs to ruin it. It’s really an impresive feat.

There are 3 digits in 100 and 28 games since we allowed it.

28-3

I wish announcers and such would keep that stuff under their hats. More motivation for whoever we face next, because they want to be "the one" who ends a streak, whatever it is.

Make hay while the sun is shining.

Yes. 32 games including playoffs.

I don’t think they were trying to jinx it. I think, at first, they legitimately thought Fournette would be the one to end the streak. Then, when it was doubtful he would, they were a TD shocked. I still get the sense that some in the media aren’t aware that we have a very good run Defebse. (Overall we’re looking better and better, too.)

Does anyone know what the record # of games is for a defense to not allow a 100 yard rusher?
