I continue to think this kid is a bit underrated by Iowa fans. I actually wanted to see more of him against Nebraska.
Any way - nice tidbit from Steve Batterson of the QC Times here:
8. Iowa running back Mekhi Sargent is nearing some elite company on the Hawkeye career charts.
With a rushing touchdown last week against Nebraska, Sargent now has 20 during his career, something only 10 backs in Iowa history have collected.
Sargent is two touchdowns away from sharing eighth place on that list with Shonn Greene, Ronnie Harmon and Owen Gill, who all ran for 22 scores as Hawkeyes.
Bettendorf’s Tavian Banks and Sedrick Shaw continue to own Iowa’s all-time record in that category, rushing for 33 touchdowns during their overlapping careers. Banks played for the Hawkeyes from 1994-97 while Shaw played from 1993-96.
