Walker has the SEC single season rushing record with 1891 rushing yards. Fournette is sitting at 1202 with 5 games remaining. Does the 30+ year old record get broken this year?

Probably.
That Mcneese game would have guarenteed it

If he breaks 200 against WKU it'll really get interesting.

With the rest of our season and a bowl game (no playoff or SEC Champ game)
Rushing Yards- Herschel Walker 1891 yds on 385 carries (4.91ypc)
Fournette has 1202 yds on 150 carries (8.01 ypc) he needs to average 114.83 yds/game to break the record.

Considering Walker did his in 11 games and LF will have potentially 14 I'd say he could probably do it.

Imo yes.

I think it absolutely does. Especially because LF will be credited with the bowl game stats and potential SECCG stats.
Alabama will be tough to run against, but I don't expect him to have less than 100 yards in any game. So worst case scenario he ends up with 1802. He also still gets to play A&M's run defense. I'm going WAY over.

Probably. Especially considering they include they include the bowl and any other games now and didn't then. Even without that it seems likely.

If he stays healthy, I don't see anyway he doesn't with the remaining schedule. With as hard as he runs, especially after initial contact, that'd be my biggest concern with LF at this point.

His two hardest games rushing is Arkansas and Alabama. WK, A&M, and Ole Miss aren't exactly stout against the run. Ole miss is in the top 40 but they gave up 200+ to Alabama. He can get it against those three teams alone.

He will break that before the Ole Miss game without a doubt. 250 vs wku, 160 vs bama, 275 vs arky.

Got to avg 138 to break it in 11 games. That's gonna be pretty tight, but he'll definitely break it after two more games.

So much football left but he's going to get awfully close to a bunch of records in November.

10/24: Western Kentucky - 172.7 ypg allowed
11/07: @ Alabama - 70.9 ypg allowed
11/14: Arkansas - 107 ypg allowed
11/21: @ Ole Miss - 130 ypg allowed
11/28: Texas A&M - 195 ypg allowed
He needs 689 yards, those allowed averages add up to 676, and he averages 200 per game. Soooo I say he gets it!

He may get enough yards to break the record against A&M alone.

How many regular season games did GA play in Herschel's day? Not flaming, just curious.
Posted on 10/23/15 at 11:20 am to WreckinRams05
I'd be surprised if he doesn't with WKU next on the schedule. The rest of the games are very tough, but he is still capable of beating it by 200+ yards.

If he doesn't get hurt , he crushes the record.
