The last guy off the field today was John Matocha. With a smile and a “thanks for coming!” he signed autographs for every kid who asked. That’s our quarterback. That’s Mines Football. #HelluvaEngineer

Does this look like the face of a man who holds the all-time NCAA record for career touchdowns? Meet John Matocha, QB at Colorado School of the Mines. He threw three TDs and ran for another on Saturday to give him 181 for his career (155 passing, 25 rushing, 1 receiving).
