Looks like McCaffrey did pretty well under the circumstances. Then again, Henry carried the entire load for Bama, and Auburn could do a thing to stop him.
Henry is the best RB in the nation this year, statistically -- but McCaffrey has been a better overall player. McCaffrey has put points on the board in FOUR facets of the game: rushing, receiving, returning, and passing. Henry just has a boatload of rushing TDs.
I'm not a fan of the victim mentality to which we on the left coast can sometimes fall prey, but can you imagine if someone on a top-10 SEC team had McCaffrey's stats? He'd be a lock for the Voldemort.
