Wanted to pay a little tribute to Anthony Dixon, Mississippi State’s greatest running back. He’s leaving this year (senior year) without any of the respect from a lot of people that he deserves.
The following is taken from BradLocke from Inside Mississippi State Sports. This is a comparison between Dixon and Mark Ingram from Alabama who is one of the front runners for the Heisman:
• Rushing yards: Dixon 1,391; Ingram 1,542
• Yards per game: Dixon 126.5 (11 games); Ingram 118.6 (13 games)
• Yards per carry: Dixon 5.4; Ingram 6.2
• Rushing touchdowns: Dixon 12, Ingram 15
• Receptions-yards-TDs: Dixon 18-123-0; Ingram 30-322-3
OK, now let’s go a little deeper.
• 100-yard games: Dixon 8 (in 11 games); Ingram 8 (in 13 games)
• Season low (carries-yards): Dixon 15-53, vs. Florida; Ingram 16-30, vs. Auburn
• Season high (carries-yards): Dixon 33-252, vs. Kentucky; Ingram 24-246, vs. South Carolina
• Yards per game vs. ranked opponents: Dixon 95.8 (five games); Ingram 144.8 (four games)
• Yards per game vs. bowl teams: Dixon 126.8 (10 games); Ingram 127.1 (9 games)
• Yards per game against common opponents (6 games): Dixon 135.3; Ingram 108.2
• Percentage of rushing offense accounted for: Dixon 50.93; Ingram 54.95
• Percentage of total offense accounted for: Dixon 33.92; Ingram 34.65
