Yes. According to the UW football media guide, bowl games ARE counted in program records (but they aren't included in NCAA records)

Call me crazy, but I'm not sure that's the case. Now, maybe no one passes 4,000, but I think we'll see more careers hit 2,500+ as long as Bohl is in town.

Looking back at his NDSU tenure, Bohl coached four of the top eight rushers in program history (including three of the top four) and seven of the top ten single season rushing totals came under Bohl. This won't be a one-player fluke.

Yes. NCAA record books have him down for 6,397 yards, but he actually ran for 7,125 in his career. That includes two 2,000-yard seasons.

Now that they allow bowl games etc. to count why cant they go back and add on to Ron Dayne's record

Bowl game stats DO count towards NCAA records, one reason why Pumphrey has a shot at breaking Dayne's career yardage record. If bowl games didn't count he wouldn't have a shot. This changed in 2002, not sure why they can't go back and change those after the fact.

Someone should let the University of Wyoming know that then. Per the football media guide:

The NCAA only recognizes regular-season totals, which are reflected here. School records throughout the rest of this section include bowl-game statistics.
