SEC games only or all games by an SEC RB ?

I would Google it, but you could've done that as well.

SEC RB, any game in a single season.

It's hard to find, but I just saw that Herschel had 4 200 yard games as a freshman.
And not the SEC, but Marcus Allen had 8 200 yard games in 1981

5... thought Walker had 5, I think he does have the most with 4 in the SEC. Buga bout to bust that.

herschell walker had 9 career games i think of 200+
4 of them were in his freshmen year.
Not sure how the other 5 were spread out his other 2 seasons.
Not sure if there's any other back taht definitively tops 4.

Answer:
Elroy "Crazy Legs" Hirsch... when he played for Coach Bear Bryant at University of Louisville, however I could be wrong on all accounts.

Was not McFadden or Tre Mason. I see Walker had 4 in 1980. Can find box scores for 1981 though.

McFadden would have been my guess.

yep, not D Mc for sure. He did have a 321 day though.

I did find on article where Walker had 4 200 yard games in 1981 but that article was written in early November. If he had at least 1 in 1982 then we know the most he ever had was 4.

i know 4 is a record by a freshmen, not sure it its overall any year record by rb in sec. can't imagine it being maybe more than 5.

Confirmed Bo Jackson had 4 200 yard games in 1985. That's 2 backs with at least 4 200 yard games.

buga would have to get 200 yards in 3 of the next 5 to tie herschel

Don't think that's accurate. Walker didn't have more than 4 in a season.
I know he had 4 200 games as a freshmen.
His junior year i've confirmed at least 2 200 yard games.
That leaves maybe 3 his sophmore year, he only had 9 career 200 yard games.
Buga has 3, needs 2 to either break the record of 4 or maybe tie someone at 5 that we've yet to identify.

It is possible that someone had 5 200 yard games that isn't one of top single season leaders although not all that likely. Someone could have gotten hurt after etc.. I would think the record is likely to be 4 though.
