STAT WATCH: Illini RB off and running toward another 1,000

Associated Press  

Illinois’s Chase Brown is well on his way to a second straight 1,000-yard rushing season. Tulsa’s Davis Brin is the leading passer at 391 yards per game, just ahead of Kyle Vantrease’s average of 388 for Georgia Southern. Kansas, which ranked 111th in scoring last year, leads the nation at 55.5 points per game after hanging 56 on Tennessee Tech and 55 on West Virginia. Defending national champion Georgia has allowed one field goal through two games and is first in scoring defense at 1.5 points per game. THE GUY CAN RUN AND CATCH Evan Hull’s 213 yards receiving for Northwestern against Duke were the most by a Bowl Subdivision running back since at least 2000, and his 14 catches were the most by a Northwestern back since Tyrell Sutton had 10 against Purdue in 2005.
