Dudes snapshots must have been limited to second half performances. Maybe even 4th quarter exclusively.

vs Rutgers

- Nebraska senior I-back Ameer Abdullah rushed 19 times for 225 yards and three touchdowns. Abdullah's 225 rushing yards marked his fourth 200-yard rushing game of the season (Florida Atlantic, Miami, Illinois, Rutgers) all at Memorial Stadium. His four 200-yard rushing games this season ties the Nebraska season record, matching Mike Rozier's four 200-yard rushing games in 1983. Abdullah has five career 200-yard rushing games.

- Abdullah's 225 rushing yards marked his 23rd career 100-yard rushing game, and his sixth of the 2014 season. Abdullah's 23 100-yard rushing games are the most in the nation and the second-most in NU history, trailing Mike Rozier's 26 career 100-yard rushing games.

- With his 225 rushing yards, Abdullah increased his season rushing total to 1,249 yards, moving him into the No. 13 on the NU single-season rushing list, including second among senior seasons. Abdullah increased his career rushing total to 4,226 yards, moving him within 554 yards of Mike Rozier's Nebraska career record of 4,780 rushing yards.

- Abdullah's 53-yard touchdown run in the second quarter marked his fourth play from scrimmage of better than 50 yards this season, including three runs (57 vs. Fresno State, 50 vs. Northwestern, 53 vs. Rutgers) and one reception (58 vs. McNeese State). With his three rushing touchdowns today, Abdullah has recorded five straight games with multiple rushing touchdowns. He added runs of 48 and 49 yards later in the game.

- Abdullah's three touchdowns give him 37 career rushing touchdowns, moving him into fifth place on the NU career rushing touchdowns list, passing Tommie Frazier's 36 career rushing touchdowns. Abdullah has 45 overall career touchdowns, tying him with Ahman Green for third on the Nebraska all-time list. His 19 touchdowns this season are tied for fifth on the Nebraska single-season chart and just three touchdowns from the No. 2 spot on the list.

- In addition to his 225 rushing yards, Abdullah totaled 26 receiving yards and 90 kick return yards for a school-record 341 all-purpose yards. The previous record was 321 all-purpose yards by Roy Helu Jr. against Missouri in 2010. Abdullah has the only two 300-yard all-purpose yardage games in the nation this season, including today's effort and his 313 all-purpose yards against Miami on Sept. 20.

- Abdullah increased his career all-purpose yardage total to 6,604 in today's game. Abdullah moved from fourth to second place on the Big Ten's career all-purpose yardage list in today's game. He moved past Anthony Thompson (Indiana, 6,466 yards) and Ohio State's Archie Griffin (6,559 yards) in today's game. Wisconsin's Ron Dayne is the career Big Ten leader with 7,429 career all-purpose yards.

If we win out the regular season and he continues doing anything remotely close to what he has been doing, there is just no reason he should not be invited to NYC.

Win it? Doubtful on that. But he deserves to be there.

Then again, if Wisconsin wins out, do we say the same about Gordon? Probably.

Not to mention, what a breath of fresh air it would be to get a real role model into the mix for once. All we see are these fucking clowns anymore every year who die for attention.

Ameer sets a real example for young men.
