Just wanted to recap what an incredible season Battie put forth and where it ranks in the USF record books, which is all the more impressive given how bad the team was. Keep in mind that the dumb trick play goes on his ledger as well:
Single Season YPC: 6.7- fourth
Career YPC: 6.6- first
Single Season yards: 1,186- sixth (one yard behind Mack for 5th)
Career yards: 1,842- seventh
Consecutive 100 yard games: 5- tied for first
Single Season 100 yard games: 7- tied for third
Career 100 yard games: 9- fourth
Single Season All Purpose Yardage (run/rec/return): 1,936- first
Career All Purpose Yardage: 3,462- sixth
Single Season Kickoff Return Yardage: 659- fifth (last year's 650 is sixth)
Career Kickoff Yardage: 1,427- fourth (his yards per attempt took a hit this year, but that's likely because he was such a big focus of the opponent)
What a great individual season for Battie. Hopefully he will be properly recognized by the conference. He'll almost certainly become the career all-purpose leader next season (DJ is the leader at 4,186), but he has already left his name all over the record book.
