Karan Higdon And Saquon Barkley’s Rushing Stats Are Almost Identical

While no longer the favorite to win the Heisman trophy, Penn State RB Saquan Barkley is almost certainly headed to New York for the Heisman ceremony. Based on stats through nine games, however, Michigan RB Karan Higdon is having almost as good a rushing season as Barkley:

Karan Higdon: 6.8 ypc, 10 TDs

Saquon Barkley: 5.7 ypc, 9 TDs
