Trivia Question

Hmm...a running back

Could it be Roy Helu Jr?
The ONLY 300 yd single game rusher in Husker history - vs Missouri - 2010ish?

It could be if you give me his total all purpose yards that day

Yes it was 2010

Season record for total offense which includes passing, rushing and receiving yards

Player, year and number of yards
 
Since official record keeping in 1946, only one Husker lead the team in both Rushing and Receiving yards in the same season. Who was it, and in what year?
 



Johnny the Jet '72
Johnny lead the team in rushing scores, but was fifth (?!?!) in rushing yards during the regular season

Roger Craig or Marlon Lucky
Despite being one of the best receiving backs in NFL history Roger wasn't used that way at DONU. He finished his career with 102 receive yards, less than Joel Makovicka had.

Lucky Lead the team in receptions, but Mo Purify out-yarded him by 100.

While researching, I came across a 2nd player - the dangers of asking questions from memory instead of looking things up.

One of the guys pretty much everyone on the board has heard of him - but you wouldn't have expected him to get the receiving. The other guy, well, if you get him right you're either really old or your cheating!

I think you are trying for Jeff Kinney in 1969, but Guy Ingles actually led him in reception yards by 8 yards even though Jeff had 14 more catches.
