College Football News - Wolfe

College Football News is Handicapping the Heisman. Wolfe is in the top ten and he's their "Heisman Contender of the Week."

Heisman Contender of the Week 8. RB Garrett Wolfe, Northern Illinois – Wolfe gutted Ohio State for 171 yards in the Shoe…and that lowered his career average versus Big Ten defenses. He was a one-man circus in the Huskies’ 35-12 loss, making a national splash in the one game on the schedule that afforded him that opportunity. America embraces underdogs, and Wolfe is just small enough and playing in an obscure enough town to create grassroots support. He’s not going anywhere, nor will his eye-popping production.
Last Week: 26 carries for 171 yards – 5 catches for 114 yards and 1 TD (Ohio State)
2006 Season: 26 carries for 171 yards – 5 catches for 114 yards and 1 TD
