The only team to hold him in check was Boston College, which allowed Cook to rush for only 54 yards on 15 carries. Wake Forest also held him to fewer than 100 yards, but that was because he left the game with a hamstring injury after just two carries. On those two carries, Cook ripped off 94 yards.
