re: Your SEC stat that's the most difficult to believe but actually true

quote:

---

One back in the history of the SEC started out with 3 consecutive 1,000 yard rushing seasons.

It isn't Bo, Darren, Hershel, or Derrek. It isn't Kevin, Cadillac, Shaun, or Emmitt.

Its Alex Collins.

I am sorry to hear about AC's passing. He was a good back. But this is not true. There have been multiple players to run for 1,000+ yards in their first three seasons, including Herschel Walker and Darren McFadden and, more recently, Benny Snell.

3 consecutive 1,000 yard rushing seasons exactly?

That's pretty special.

1980 Herschel ran for 1616.
1981 Herschel ran for 1891.
1982 Herschel ran for 1752.
