The fifth grade educated bama fan stated "Derrick Henry holds the SEC rushing record".
Anyone with at least a sixth grade education would understand 'career' rushing yards, not single season. When looking at single season totals, Georgia only played 12 games in 1981 vs 15 games Alabama played in 2015. Also you didn't count the stats from Georgia's bowl game but you did count Alabama's stats.
Plus they both played 3 seasons and Herschel has greater than a thousand yards more than Henry.

That’s just simply not true. You made an incorrect assumption.

That’s because they didn’t count bowl game stats in the 80s but we can. With the bowl game (25 rushes for 84 yards) Herschel’s total rushing yards are 410 rushes for 1975 yards. Again, Derrick’s stats are 395 rushes for 2219 yards.

Today is the first time I've ever heard anyone think the "SEC Rushing Record" was a career stat, rather than single season.
As for games played, Henry broke the record before the season was over, and he did it in less carries.
