Reesing rocks the record books

By Staff     Nov 4, 2007

_After each KU football game this season, this is where you can find out the gridiron equivalent of The Nielsen Ratings from Journal-World sports editor Tom Keegan. He’ll rate the Top 10 Jayhawk individual performances, telling you who was worth tuning in to watch. If you agree or maybe even differ, make sure to comment and tell Tom how you really feel. (**Scoring**: Each week, the top player in the ratings will be awarded 10 points. Second best gets nine points. Third best gets eight points, and so on and so on. The season standings are at the bottom)_**1. Todd Reesing**: Has thrown 139 consecutive passes without an interception. Set records for touchdown passes in a game (six) and season (23). **2. Brandon McAnderson**: Rushed for 119 yards and four touchdowns, the latter matching a school record. Turned a short pass into a 36-yard reception.**3. Marcus Henry**: Had been suffering from the drops but caught them all this time and not all of them were easy catches. Had 101 receiving yards and one touchdown and gained 23 yards on a reverse. **4. Dezmon Briscoe**: Big, physical and fast, Briscoe had three touchdown receptions and owns the freshman record with seven.**5. Kerry Meier**: Became first KU player since Garfield Taylor (1981) to have a rush for a TD, throw one and catch one when he scored on his first touchdown reception. Had four catches for 42 yards.**6. Anthony Collins**: Emotional, strong, and quick, he’s playing his way to lofty postseason honors. **7. Derek Fine**: Made some tough, tough catches.**8. Chet Hartley**: Most important member of a strong junior college recruiting class. **9. Jake Sharp**: Caught a beauty of a pass from Reesing for a 26-yard touchdown and rushed for 44 yards.**10. Dexton Fields**: Typically solid performance with six catches for 55 yards.**The Keegan Ratings: Season Standings (total points)** **1.** Todd Reesing (61 points) **2.** Aqib Talib (49 points) **3.** Anthony Collins (46 points) **4.** Joe Mortensen (37 points) **5.** Brandon McAnderson (36 points) **6.** Marcus Henry (31 points) **T-7.** James McClinton (30 points) **T-7.** Jake Sharp (30 points) **9.** Darrell Stuckey (21 points) **10.** James Holt (19 points) **T-11.** Mike Rivera (17 points) **T-11.** Derek Fine (17 points) **13.** Justin Thornton (13 points) **T-14.** John Larson (10 points) **T-14.** Chris Harris (10 points) **T-16.** Marcus Herford (9 points) **T-16.** Dezmon Briscoe (9 points) **T-18.** Kendrick Harper (7 points) **T-18.**Kerry Meier (7 points) **20.** Kyle Tucker (6 points) **21.** Scott Webb (5 points) **22.** Raimond Pendleton (4 points) **T-23.** Max Onyegbule (3 points) **T-23.** Dakota Lewis (3 points) **T-23.** Jeff Wheeler (3 points) **T-23.** Ryan Cantrell (3 points) **T-23.** Chet Hartley (3 points) **T-28.** Jake Laptad (2 points) **T-28.** Raymond Brown (2 points) **T-28.**Dexton Fields (2 points)
