Jordin Thomas Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Sadly, Jordin Thomas posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Lincoln over Kimball on Friday. Thomas rushed for 191 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (104.8). Lincoln is 2-1 when Thomas posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Kimball had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Thomas it was a similar story. When Thomas last faced the Jaguars back in August of 2023, he rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns.
