LaDainian Tomlinson holds the NCAA single-game rushing record with 406 yards for Texas Christian against Texas El Paso in 1999. I'm an alum of TCU, and I believe that this record still holds strong. That record has long since be broken, last year in fact a kid from Southern Connecticut State university, Jarom Freeman rush for 418 yards. Forth most in NCAA history.
