Is Ashton Jeanty the Next Barry Sanders? Boise State's Rushing Sensation on the Verge of History!

Jeanty is nearly halfway to a season unlike anything any college back has ever produced, and the only reason he’s not even more of an outlier is that Boise State has shown mercy to his opponents. 

Jeanty doesn’t just get yards. He defies gravity.
