Politicians lie but numbers never do. Every Sunday, we find the wildest stats, streaks, and trends from the week that was in the SEC. Here are the Week 13 Numbers to Know.
2: Auburn has scored an opening drive touchdown two weeks in a row. They hadn’t done it since Week 3.
3: Auburn blew a 21-0 lead against Texas A&M, their third blown double-digit second half lead of the season. However, this was the first one that still ended in a victory.
1: Cam Coleman and KeAndre Lambert-Smith are the first duo in Auburn history to both have 100 receiving yards in consecutive games.
3: Texas has not only had the easiest strength of schedule in the SEC, but they have also played three of their seven conference games against backup quarterbacks.
5: South Carolina has the longest active win streak in the SEC with five.
147: Oklahoma’s season high in rushing yards against an SEC opponent this year was 147. They surpassed that in the first half against Alabama and finished with 260.
10: Missouri has rushed for more than 200 yards in ten games since the start of last season.
2: Jalen Milroe had two completions in the first half against Oklahoma.
25: With their win over Alabama, Oklahoma clinched a bowl berth for the 25th consecutive year.
9: Georgia had allowed just nine points in their last three non-conference games combined before allowing 21 to Massachusetts on Saturday.
9: Garrett Nussmeier threw only nine incompletions on Saturday against Vanderbilt, which was tied for his season low and also the lowest since week one of the season against Southern Cal.
23.8: Going into the season, Florida had only a 23.8 percent chance to make it to a bowl game. They now sit at six wins with a chance to win their seventh against 2-9 Florida State next week.
