The record Deon Jackson set was for All Purpose Yards. He had 403 yards (162 rushing, 89 receiving, 152 kick off return).

Previously, Randy Cuthbert held the record with 311 (234 rushing, 56 receiving, 21 kick off return).

Deon can thank our D for his big advantage since we allowed some many Pitt kickoffs.

Deon Jackson named ACC Co-Running Back of the Week. I'm sure he would trade the accolades for a win but the accolades are all we got:

Duke sophomore running back Deon Jackson earned ACC Co-Running Back of the Week honors following his 403 all-purpose yards during the Blue Devils’ 54-45 loss at Pittsburgh this past Saturday, announced the league office Monday.

I would say the podcast was excellent overall regarding FB and BB...but I think, on the podcast, that Jone's performance was a tad over stated. Yes, he was good, and yes he had 400 yards, but so many of those yards came on short dink passes - and missed 2 out of 3 slants that should've been TDs, and then there's the "you cannot do that" fumble. And he didn't play well in the fourth quarter.

Indeed he certainly looked sharp much of the game...but I would stop short of great or fantastic for the reasons above. And I would add when asked about Jones performance, Cut talked about "the three mis-throws that could have made a difference" - and he mentioned the fumble too. (I don't remember the third miss, but I stopped watching for a while).
