Ibrahim did indeed have more yardage and TD's than Corum. But it also took him 57 more carries to do it.
Fair play--Brown averaged 5.0 yards per run, far below the other two (Corum 5.9, Robinson 6.1)

Chase also had to rush against 3 of the top 10 defenses in the nation. Using Football Outsiders advanced stats: Iowa 2, Michigan 4, Minnesota 7.
