Happy t'giving to you too, Bob. and now about Williams vs. Campbell...

I knew someone would mention the great Earl Campbell when I suggested that Ricky Williams was the best EVER runningback for the Longhorns, therefore I give you "The Stats":

Williams could get rare rushing-scoring combination titles

By Mark Wangrin
Austin American-Statesman

AUSTIN _ Heading into the season finale at Texas A&M, Texas halfback Ricky Williams is in excellent position to become the 24th player to lead the nation in rushing and scoring.

With his 211-yard rushing performance, his sixth 200-yard game of the season and his three catches for 21 yards, Williams also moved into second place in all-purpose yardage (rushing, receiving and kick and punt returns). He would need his best day ever to catch Troy Edwards of Louisiana Tech, who has finished the regular season with a 284-yard lead over Williams. Only 14 players have led the nation in rushing,
scoring and all-purpose yards.

Earl Campbell is the last Longhorn to lead the nation in rushing and scoring, averaging 158.5 yards and 10.4 points in 1977.

Williams is averaging 171 yards rushing and 14.0 points per game.
------------

Ricky just sort of snuck up on us.
