Sacramento State Back Gets 409 Yards
Charles Roberts rushed for 409 yards and five touchdowns to lead Sacramento State (5-5, 3-5) past Idaho State (2-8, 0-7), 41-20, in a Big Sky Conference game Saturday at Sacramento.
Roberts set an NCAA record for a single-game rushing performance, eclipsing the previous Division I-A record set by Kansas running back Tony Sands, who rushed for 396 yards against Missouri in 1991; the Division I-AA record of Siena running back Reggie Greene, who gained 379 yards against St. John’s in 1996; and the Division II record of Fairmont State running back Rob Davidson, who rushed for 403 yards versus Concord last year.
