Big receptions save output Irvin posted five rushes for 10 yards and gathered in all two targets for 92 yards during Saturday's 41-7 win over Cal Poly. Impact Irvin was completely bottled up on the ground, again tallying just five carries like he did in the opener. This time he only parlayed that into 10 rushing yards. It was his receiving chops, however, that bailed him out. His 92 yards receiving on two catches somewhat saved the tailback's statline. Still, Irvin hasn't done much on the ground despite being Stanford's lead back this season, and he can't be counted on to explode as a receiver week in and week out.
