Big Game from Oldham As University Fell 15-7
University was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Carl Oldham did his best to prevent it. Oldham was dynamite, picking up 107 receiving yards and a touchdown. He is becoming a predictor of University's success: when he posts at least 80 receiving yards the team is 3-1 (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
This year, Oldham has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 85.3 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 3.43 receiving yards per game.
