Michael Rand started RandBall with hopes that he could keep lies from conquering the minds of the weak. So far, he's only succeeded in using the word "redacted" a lot. He welcomes suggestions, news tips, links of pure genius, and pictures of pets in Halloween costumes here, though he already knows he will regret that last part.

TFD: Montee Ball, fierce rival of RandBall, will return for senior year at Wisconsin
Posted by: Michael Rand under NCAA: football Updated: January 5, 2012 - 5:48 PM
Get into the backseat, baby.
So yeah, Montee Ball is one of those rivals. And now that he will be staying at Wisconsin for his senior season, we only expect that rivalry to grow.
Ball, by the way, said he was advised that he would only be a third-round pick in the NFL. That led us to check how many first-round RBs Wisconsin has produced, and the number is two: Ron Dayne and Michael Bennett, one right after the other in 2000 and 2001.
Your mission, without looking: What are the career rushing totals for Dayne and Bennett. And, after looking: Did your research surprise you?
