SEC referees and the heights and weights on a roster may lie, but numbers never do. It was a slow week in the SEC with several teams on bye weeks, but there were still some incredible performances and record-setting statistics from Saturday’s action. Here are the Numbers to Know from the SEC in Week 10:
69: It’s been 69 years since Vanderbilt beat Alabama and Auburn in the same year.
2: Jaxson Dart became the second quarterback in SEC history to have over 500 yards passing and six touchdowns in a single game.
13: LSU-Alabama will be featured for the 13th time on ESPN’s College Gameday. That’s tied for the most of any matchup in the show’s history.
36: Tennessee beat Kentucky for the 36th time in the last 39 years.
286: Texas A&M allowed 286 yards rushing against South Carolina. That’s the third most in a single game the Aggies have allowed in the last eight years.
