To expand upon the issue:

There are approximately 37 different categories for College Football 
that house statistics.  I will be parsing 37 different URLs to pull and 
retrieve data that will be pushed to my database.  The Scraper class is 
the tool for doing that.

Each call within my rake task is going to call specific URLs using the 
methods located in the Scraper class but will update to specific table 
names.

Example:

rushing_offense.rb ---> connects to the rushing_offenses table
passing_offense.rb ---> connects to the passing_offenses table
scoring_offense.rb ---> connects to the scoring_offenses table

Call to scraper.rb to parse data from a rushing offense URL
Call to scraper.rb to update data to rushing_offenses table
Call to scraper.rb to parse data from a passing offense URL
Call to scraper.rb to update data to passing_offenses table
Call to scraper.rb to parse data from a scoring offense URl
Call to scraper.rb to update data to scoring_offenses table
etc. etc.
