The legend of Justin Jackson continues.
After eclipsing 5,000 career rushing yards on Saturday against the Minnesota Golden Gophers, the Northwestern Wildcat running back also became just the second ever B1G back to run 1,000 yards in four straight seasons. The only other back to do that is Wisconsin great Ron Dayne.
