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.
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.

The answer is Darren McFadden. Did it with no passing threat AT ALL (Casey Dick and Mitch Mustain were QBs) while sharing a backfield with NFL players Felix Jones and Peyton Hillis.
