    Autry helped turn one of the worst college football programs around. In the last two years Northwestern has gone from Big Ten doormat, to college powerhouse. During this time, Autry proved himself to be a top college back. He became the school's all-time leading rusher with 3727 yards, and his 35 rushing touchdowns are also a school record. Autry is a big play back, who has the ability to break a game open at any moment. He rushed for over 100-yds in 19 consecutive games and would have continued this streak, but a sprained shoulder limited his playing time.
