Post-Mississippi State Update

Notes:
-Hurts jumped over McElroy and Zow and into 4th place on the career total yards list. He'll probably go past Croyle on Saturday against Mercer and into 3rd place. That's as far as he'll go this season, though, as JPW is still nearly 1,900 yards ahead of him. Still quite impressive for a guy three-quarters of the way through his sophomore season.
-Hurts added two more TDs for 55 in his career. I don't think he'll play very long against Mercer but he should add one or two and then be in position to pass JPW for 2nd on career TD in the Auburn game. McCarron is way in the distance at #1.
-Harris went over 2,000 career yards and now sits at #19 on the school rushing list, five yards behind Harry Gilmer. Harris passed Tony Nathan and Corky Tharpe in the win over MSU.
-Ridley is now 18 catches behind DJ Hall on the school's career list. This could be very close. If we beat Auburn, that gives him a minimum of 4 more games to get there. If we lose to Auburn, there's potential for only three more games on the schedule and that would make it tougher.
-Ridley's first 100-yard game of the season against MSU put him 84 yards behind Julio Jones for 3rd place on the school's all-time list.
-Ridley's TD reception drought extended to seven games. Hard to imagine he's only caught two TD this year. Hopefully he'll double that in the next couple of weeks.

Post-Georgia, End-of-season update:

Notes:
--Jalen's poor individual game meant little movement for him on any of the lists. He finished the year 3rd on the career total yardage list and 24th on the career rushing list.
--Harris likewise had a bad game with only 17 yards on 6 carries. He did not move from last week and finished the season 16th on the career rushing list.
--Ridley's TD moved him into 2nd place on the all-time receiving TD list, past Dennis Homan (he is still 12 touchdowns back of Amari for the career lead). He also is 2nd in school history in receptions (224 to Cooper's 228). Our passing struggles kept him from getting that record. Regardless, what a great career.
--I don't have the final number but I believe JK Scott finished as the school's career punting average leader. He was at 45.5 for his career early in the game and he was over 47 yards per try last night.

Anyone else notice how similar the CFP game was to another game back in 2007? #22 Georgia 26 - #16 Alabama 23

Thank you very much. It was an interesting year in that we had so many guys making their way up in the record books. Presumably with a new QB next year and so many new skill guys, we won't have that (although if Ruggs keeps up his blistering pace he may very soon be on the TD list ).

The main thing to keep an eye on for next year will be how high D. Harris can climb on the career rushing list. He looks like he'll have a good shot to become the 8th guy in school history to reach 3,000 career yards (currently at 2,197).

More interestingly, he's at 6.7 yards per carry for his career right now on 326 carries (for some context, Derrick Henry had 395 carries in 2015 alone). The highest YPC average in school history for someone with at least 400 carries is 6.3 by Bobby Marlow. I think Harris will have a chance to get that record.

I’m a stats nerd so I enjoy checking this thread every week too. I know a lot of it has to do with changes in the game, but it’s amazing how Bama’s record books have been re-written under CNS. It’s not like we had bad teams and players the 100 years before CNS.

I’m hoping D. Harris has a big year next year and moves up the list. I feel like our rushing game was at its best in ‘09 when we had real defined roles for the RBs: Ingram - lead, Trent - every third series, Upchurch - passing down. I’d like to see that this year with DH, NH, and JJ with some extra snaps/packages for a healthy JJ. Obviously we’re expecting a more dynamic passing game next year than we had in ‘09 but that doesn’t mean the ‘09 formula for the run game can’t work.

Darby and Yeldon came up short in their bids for 3 seasons of 1,000 yards. Hopefully Damien will fare better.
