Randolph Can Set Another FCS Mark on Saturday

<p>Holy Cross quarterback Dominic Randolph put his name alongside the late Steve McNair in the Football Championship Subdivsion record book on Saturday, and can move ahead of the former Alcorn State (1991-94) and NFL star this weekend. Randolph threw a touchdown pass for the 36th consecutive game in the win over Dartmouth, matching McNair's all-time FCS record. The Holy Cross signal-caller will gain sole possession of the mark if he throws a touchdown on Saturday against Colgate. Randolph has thrown at least two touchdown passes in 15 consecutive games. Randolph has already shattered the mark for consecutive games with at least 200 yards passing, as his active streak of 35 games bested the previous mark of 28 held by McNair and former Portland State star Neil Lomax (1978-80). Randolph is also approaching two FCS career marks in major categories, as his 1,547 attempts are 133 shy of the record of 1,680 held by McNair and Cal St. Northridge's Marcus Brady (1998-01) and his 982 completions are 140 off the record of 1,122 held by New Hampshire's Ricky Santos (2004-07). Randolph is eighth in FCS history in passing yardage (11,640), ninth in passing touchdowns (101) and 10th in total offense (12,164). He leads the Patriot League in nine different career categories: completions, attempts, passing yards, passing touchdowns, total offense, touchdowns responsible for (113), 300-yard passing games (21), 400-yard passing games (seven) and 400-yard games of total offense (eight).</p>
