Senior receiver Darrius Sims is having himself quite a day against the Missouri Tigers on Saturday.

At the start of the fourth quarter, Sims leads the team with 86 yards rushing on only seven carries. This equates to a 12.3 yards-per-carry average.

Sims also has one kick return for 25 yards. While this does seem like an innocuous statistic, it helped to break a Vanderbilt school record:

For his career, the senior out of Memphis has 2,272 return yards. Sims broke a record originally set by former Commodore, Mark Johnson.

With a few games remaining on the schedule, look for Sims to pad this stat even further.
