It is a shame to say this, but a 1000 yard season really isn't that big a deal anymore.

It is certainly a milestone, but not unattainable, especially if a runningback is continuously fed the football.

Unfortunately you also have to take into account how the stats were arrived at. There are so many ways that schools take stats that it is easy to "massage" the actual statistics.

Where did some of these guys go to college at?
