'94 Sanctioned OFFICIAL Thread: SI Gives Zach Line Props
Posted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 12:05 pmBesides Western Michigan's Jordan White, what other players at mid-major schools are having great seasons and flying under the radar of college football fans?
-- Andrew B, Warren, Mich.
Well first we should tell people who Jordan White is. He currently ranks second nationally in receptions (43) and fifth in receiving yards (137.3 per game), most recently catching 12 balls for 173 yards and two touchdown in a win at Connecticut. It marked his third straight game with at least a dozen catches. He's a machine.
Elsewhere, I recently took note of Colorado State sophomore defensive end Nordly Capi, who leads the nation in both sacks (eight) and forced fumbles (five). According to CBS Sports' Bruce Feldman, he's also a former high school water polo player. So, he's pretty athletic. Let's also give a nod to Air Force linebacker Brady Amack, who had a staggering 23 tackles in the Falcons' win over Navy last week, earning Walter Camp defensive player of the week honors. Houston's Sammy Brown is leading the nation in tackles for loss (11.5). And I continue to be impressed with SMU running back Zach Line, who opened the season with 128 yards against Texas A&M and had 120 in last week's upset of TCU.
