    Yet another reason why I hate replay in college football
    This is pretty damn tickey tack really. It's bad enough you review plays in games, but to review a record setting performance is total going to far.

    Arkansas running back ends up with 321 rushing yards

    FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Darren McFadden had 2 yards subtracted from his rushing total from Saturday night, meaning he only tied the Southeastern Conference single-game record.

    McFadden was initially credited with 323 yards on 35 carries in Arkansas' 48-36 win over South Carolina, but Razorbacks spokesman Kevin Trainor said Sunday that a review of the film showed the star tailback was given too many yards. A 3-yard run by Felix Jones was mistakenly credited to McFadden, and McFadden was shortchanged a yard on one of his carries.

    McFadden is now credited with 321 yards on 34 carries. Jones' updated totals for Saturday night: 13 carries for 166 yards.

    Vanderbilt's Frank Mordica rushed for 321 yards in a 1978 game.

    Ok so they made a mistake on the stats by giving Jones 3 yards, thats fine. But to shortchange him a yard on a carry is stupid.

        Are individual stats more important than team wins? Do linemen ever get credit for the blocks?
