  06/02/20 - RB Travis EtienneSr/2021, Clemson

  Clemson's Travis Etienne is closing in on the ACC career rushing record N.C. State's Ted Brown has held for more than 40 years. Officially, Etienne needs 565 yards this season as a senior to surpass Brown's record of 4,602. That's how the record book sees it, anyway. Brown, though, actually gained an additional 399 yards in bowl games during his Wolfpack career, which if counted would make his record tougher for Etienne to break. But those yards aren't counted for Brown even though the yards Etienne has gained playing in three ACC championship games and five College Football Playoff games are counted toward his total.

That's right - the NCAA, and ACC by extension, each counts eight additional games for Etienne that it wouldn't have counted for Brown. Etienne rushed for 625 yards in those eight games. If Clemson makes the postseason this year, Etienne can possibly end his career having played in 11 postseason games that count toward his statistics - almost a full season's worth - while Brown's three bowl game performances don't count at all. Is this fair? And how can this be? Well, it's a statistical oddity of the NCAA's creation that remains a source of debate within college football circles. While some want it fixed, others are against it. - The State
