For just the third time since the start of the 2019 season, Chuba Hubbard was held under 100 rushing yards Saturday.

That in itself is an impressive stat, but Hubbard’s 72-yard performance Saturday brought his career yard per game total down from 110.4 to 109.2, still good for third in Oklahoma State history behind Barry Sanders (118.7) and Terry Miller (113.2).

Rank Name Yards Per Game (No. of Games)
1 Barry Sanders 118.7 (32)
2 Terry Miller 113.2 (42)
3 Chuba Hubbard 109.2 (31)
4 Thurman Thomas 106.4 (47)
5 Justice Hill 98.3 (36)
6 David Thompson 98.1 (44)
7 Gerald Hudson 97.5 (30)
8 Dantrell Savage 95.1 (22)
9 Worley Taylor 92.4 (24)
10 Kendall Hunter 89 (47)

It looked like Hubbard had a good shot at catching Tatum Bell on OSU’s career rushing yards list this week, but the 72 yards Hubbard managed left him 25 yards short.

Still, if Hubbard runs for his season average (110 yards a game) in OSU’s final five games of the year, he would finish with 4,484 career rushing yards. That number would be good for third all-time.

Rank Name Yards
1 Thurman Thomas 5,001
2 Terry Miller 4,754
3 David Thompson 4,318
4 Kendall Hunter 4,181
5 Barry Sanders 3,797
6 Ernest Anderson 3,780
7 Justice Hill 3,539
8 Tatum Bell 3,409
9 Chuba Hubbard 3,384
10 Joseph Randle 3,085

Lastly, this was the first game this season Hubbard didn’t rush for a touchdown (he did have a receiving TD). His career total of rushing scores remains at 33, one off of a three-way tie with Bell and Jeremy Smith for sixth on OSU’s career list.

Rank Name Touchdowns
1 Barry Sanders 53
2 Terry Miller 49
3 Thurman Thomas 47
4 Joseph Randle 40
5 Kendall Hunter 37
T6 Tatum Bell 34
T6 Jeremy Smith 34
8 Chuba Hubbard 33
9 Justice Hill 30
10 Bob Fenimore 28
