Watching Friday’s Rose Bowl was unsettling, and not just for Iowa fans. It churned the stomach of a sportswriter who, somewhere between the first snap and a dazzling second-quarter punt return, realized he had made a horrible mistake.

It was nice to see the acknowledgement that he had made a "horrible mistake."  Now, I'd like to see a few dozen more.

What happens if next year, CMac does not have such a spectacular year?  Will the Voldemort voters anoint him anyway because they now realize how badly they erred this year?

Well, a thumbs up for actually admitting a mistake. Not something sports writers are known for.

A thumbs down for making the mistake.

Stanford plays on the West Coast, often kicking off deep into the night for other time zones. Seven of the Cardinal games started at 9 p.m. or later Central time and were not always televised here in farm country. Maybe McCaffrey was out of mind because he was out of sight.

Well, that's the story we've been hearing ... but really.

[and only two Stanford games were on the Pac 12 Network. Pretty sure that farm country gets ESPN, ABC, and Fox. ... (was that some kind of outdo-the-LSJUMB farm-country-crack?)]



... and it turns out that he is still missing something in his correction,

And, as spectacular as his Rose Bowl was, McCaffrey actually had two games with more all-purpose yards – 369 vs. UCLA on Oct. 15 and 389 vs. California on Nov. 21.

whoops.

McCaffrey had 6 games with 300+ yards of all purpose yardage.

The rest of the country only accomplished this 7 times all season.  And no one did it more than twice.

Old news, Spiny. The rest of the country doesn't want to hear it, sadly.
