There haven’t been many things that have gone right for 1-4 Boston College this year and running back Montel Harris provided about the only positive in a 27-19 loss to Wake Forest today.
A 26-yard run by Harris early in the fourth quarter made Harris BC’s all-time leading rusher, breaking Derrick Knight‘s record of 3,725 yards. Harris finished the day with 108 yards on 22 carries; he needed 98 to break the record.
Indicative of how this season has gone for BC, Harris hurt his knee on the record-setting play, but was able to return to the game a short while later. Harris had been dealing with a knee injury that had kept him out for the first three games of the season.
