Introducing Coby Fleener

Andrew Luck may be the one that everyone is talking about following Stanford's 40-12 victory over Virginia Tech tonight, but Senior Tight End Coby Fleener had a lot to do with Stanford's Orange Bowl win. Prior to tonight's game, Fleener had not caught more than 4 passes in a game all season. His biggest offensive output in any one game was against Notre Dame where he tallied 57 yards on 4 receptions and his longest play from scrimmage was a 36 yard touchdown against Oregon. Tonight was a different story though. Fleener broke out with 6 catches for 173 yards and 3 touchdowns of 41, 58 and 38 yards. Over the previous 8 games, Fleener had only 154 yards total. Gotta love when players step up for big games.
