To help with just how strong & explosive he is, watch the other handoffs to Tice & Johnson. They're not bad backs, but Temple ate them up for the most part. Mack hit the hole and...he gone.

He may stay for a senior season because he will have same class as Cook and Fournette if they leave after next year. He's got a shot at 5000+ in his career.

The guy has vision, speed, and durability.

Mack had an extra gear that the Temple D didn't have.  His speed is phenomenal

Mack was the star last night but the kicker Nadelman had a great game as well. After being inconsistent all year, he made every kick last night (3 fg & 5 xp). Add to the fact that the Temple kicker missed two field goals, and you could argue that Nadelman was the other MVP.

I wish Mack got more media attention but that's just a reflection of our rebuilding process. I think next season people everywhere will start to hear his name more!

Macks patience in letting blocks develop, decision - making and hole selection, as well as incredible top end speed are rare all together in one package. 

But the number one reason I love watching him run - he's so smooth that it makes it look effortless. Almost graceful. Privileged to watch him perform out there. Another Taggart recruiting gem, flipped him from UCLA I believe.

I commented to the couple who sit behind us last night about how he is so fast he can catch his balance on the sideline so as not to step out of bounds and still no one catches him!

Mack is now #22 in the country in rushing and leads the conference. If he'd gotten to play against SMU, just based on average YPG he'd be at #14. Possibly more since SMU's defense is terrible.

The Nadelmeister got my vote as the other MVP ...
