forte for heisman update

this is the uncle rico series where i try to generate heisman hype for a hero from my hometown named matt forte. against rice on saturday mr. forte rushed for 195 yards and 5 td's on 39 carries, bringing the season total to 2007 yards...AND HE STILL HAS A GAME LEFT!! forte is only the 11th back in d-1 history to break the 2000 yard barrier, and the first since 2004. although he was knocked out of the running for the doak walker award, he was informed that he will be invited to the senior bowl. despite the crazy numbers, forte only has a 62 yard lead on kevin smith of central florida for the national rushing title. another strong showing on saturday against eastern carolina and forte is entering some historical territory.
