Best

Art Best's two td runs (as a Frosh) were on his 1st & 4th carries of his career

56 yds vs Pitt
57 yds vs TCU

the two runs in between his td runs were both for 0 (no gain) yds

56, 0, 0, 57

somewhat like Art's overall up (way up) and down career:

after a great yr as a soph in '73 = 700 yds rushing on National Champs

Art broke his jaw in the opener vs GT as a junior in '74 & missed part of the season = 241 yds rushing

(a major disappointment after running for 117 yds in the Blue Gold spring game- a big season was expected...especially after Eric Penick had broken his leg/ankle that spring & also missed most of the '74 season)

Art was moved to fullback in the spring of '75 (to replace graduated FB Wayne Bullock) by new Coach Dan Devine..he ran for 112 yds in 18 carries in the Blue Gold game...but was booted out of school soon afterwards

Best transferred to Kent St & ran for 1,000 yds (as a Fullback) before a brief NFL career...IIRC (and I may be wrong) Best was the 1st Kent St back to ever gain a 1,000 yds in a season

a PS

Art's first game in an ND uniform was rushing for 83 yds in a ND JV win over the Michigan JV (17-7) as a Frosh in '72...with Art receiving a promotion to the varsity after that 1 JV game.
