Mr. 300
It was a day that will go down in dynasty history, as the Michigan State Spartans (8-3) took on the Hawaii Warriors (6-5) in Hawaii.
The Spartans won 38-17, and as a team rushed for 332 yards. 308 of those yards belonged to HB A.J. Jimmerson.
"Absolutely amazing. He broke a nice run of about 15 yards and I thought to myself, I wonder if he broke 200 yards yet. I go to the box score and see he has 254. Needless to say, we urged him to get that 300 and he did it with ease."
Jimmerson ran the ball an amazing 50 times in the victory, and he never seemed to be tired. He would come out for a play here, a play there, but when you get 50 carries you have to be in there almost every play.
Along with Jimmerson's 308 yards, QB Connor Dixon played a brilliant game, going 10 of 11 for 153 yards, two touchdown passes to WR T.J. Williams, and one interception.
The Spartans totaled 485 yards against a Hawaii defense that just looked like they didn't want to be there.
With the win, the Spartans finished their regular season at 9-3 and will await their Bowl announcement.
