What's up with GARRETT WOLFE, CFB's leading rusher??

The nations leading rusher was held to a mere 25 yards rushing @ W. Michigan two weekends ago and a mere 45 yards at home to Temple this past Saturday.

He and his NIU teammates have a confrontation with the IOWA HAWKEYES this coming Saturday at legendary Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City.

The guy only weighs 177. He cant run for big yards when playing a good defensive team.

Sorry to differ WV but check the guys numbers --- he lights up everyone including Ohio St

He has 70 yards in his last two games against W.Michigan and TEMPLE! Thats all that needs to be said.

This sort of dropoff makes absolutely no sense to me.

VERY STRANGE

Iowa Will Crush The Huskies

Temple...was almost dead last in the country in rushing defense.

They were getting gashed for over 6 yards per carry coming into that game with NIU.

So of course they shut down Wolfe and NIU's ground game to the tune of 89 yards on 35 carries. Wolfe had 17 for 45 yards...

Now Temple's average per carry is around 5.6...thanks to that game.

DiMichele torched their secondary too...over and over again NIU just cannot stop the pass...and gives up big plays...

Circled Iowa on Saturday afternoon after watching Temple/NIU...

Got in on the 14.5 for 10units.

Tate should have a huge day...and the Hawkeyes run defense as vastly superior to that of the Owls.
