From a historical perspective, Auburn and Alabama dominate in pounding the rock.

Shoutout to Arkansas for making the list. They did something no other SEC team could do.

I don’t think we will ever see another team dominate the backfield like that 2013 Auburn team.

Absolutely insane what they accomplished.

Now, everyone wants to pass, pass and pass more.

Judkins is special.


Hope he comes with Lane.

They’ll be on the list but fighting for the 6/5 spot. They’re at 3,061 Yds right now and averaging 278/gm so roughly 3600 yds after the bowl game.

If I'm not mistaken, sometime in the 80s Auburn was the first SEC team to have more yards passing than rushing. I also seem to remember LSU passed for more yards than rushing the very next year.

I'm too busy to look up the stats, but I seem to recall those facts from when I was in school in the 80s. It's possible that I have the teams reversed.

Before the rule changes he could catch you in a bad look and really punish it. Rule changes and poor OLine recruiting did him in, but those offenses were fun to watch.

Hard to imagine this on a non-option team in the modern day.

I’m surprised that a Les Miles LSU team isn’t on that list.
