Today's stat of the day

A real quick hitter before getting back to Ralph's chat.

Maryland tailback Da'Rel Scott has run for 320 yards in the first two games.

The last time a Terrapin had such a two-game stretch?

Bruce Perry? Chris Downs? LaMont Jordan?

All had some monster days. But it's none of the above.

Try Josh Allen, who rolled up 401 yards in victories against Virginia (257) and N.C. State (144) late in the 2003 season.

The school record? Well, what good would I be if I couldn't provide some original analytical content and come up with that answer in five minutes?

It appears that mark is held by Perry, who had 429 yards against Wake Forest (276) and West Virginia (153) in 2001. Just behind him is Charlie Wysocki, who ran for 424 yards against Louisville (222) and Virginia (202) late in the 1979 season.
