Records that could fall in the National Championship Game
Posted on 12/31/19 at 12:29 am

As a sports stats guy, I was putting some of these together anyway, so thought I would share. This is a work in progress, I'm still digging for other possible records and validating some others that I believe are in play. If you know of any that aren't listed, please post and I'll add them as I see/verify them. One note: numbers are based on what is needed to tie the current record unless noted otherwise. For what is needed to break it, just add 1.
Team
NCAA Most Points Scored in a Season
Current record: 723, Florida St, 2013
LSU: 684 (needs 39 pts)
NCAA Most Victories in a Season
Current record: 15, Clemson, 2018
LSU: Win in NCG would tie and also end Clemson's win streak
Most points scored in the CFP Championship
Current record: 45, Alabama, 2016
LSU: Averaging 48.86 ppg
Total Offense in the CFP Championship
Current record: 550, Clemson, 2016
LSU: Averaging 564.1 ypg
Joe Burrow
LSU Career TOTAL yards
Current record: 8,938 yds, Tommy Hodson
Joe: 8,828 yds (needs 110 yds)

Current record: 76.7%, Colt McCoy, Texas
Joe: 77.6% (needs to complete 27 of 40 or better)
Note: See mdomingue's post below for additional completion/attempt numbers to break 76.7% (thanks, mdomingue)
NCAA Single Season Passing Efficiency Rating
Current record: 199.4, Tua Tagovailoa
Joe: 204.6
Note: Joe will likely finish 2nd. Tua's current efficiency rating is 206.9 and he is done, so this will likely be the new record. Still a question on how many games have to be played to qualify, but from what I've seen posted, Tua met the minimum.

For the total TD's, Burreaux will have had an additional 2 games vs what Colt Brennan had. They should be noted "in the CFP era" or something.
Either way, I'm still amazed that we are ballin' the way we are. So exciting
ETA: Damn good job on assembling these stats btw.

Awesome post . Thanks for compiling those in a single thread.

Yea we can call it even given that Colt Brennan did that in the WAC.
These stats + the schedule we have played are unbelievable.

Thanks. And, yes, LSU gets the benefit of playing an extra game on a number of these.

And, on the other hand, the completion % record by McCoy was set in 13 games - and not against playoff opponents.
Joe was well ahead of McCoy at 13 games.

Isn’t the total offense record in play too?
Posted on 12/31/19 at 1:31 am to ffishstik
Great post OP, thx for sharing
Posted on 12/31/19 at 2:26 am to ffishstik
And Justin Jefferson is the new leader for receptions in a season with 103.
Posted on 12/31/19 at 2:34 am to ffishstik
Additionally:
A touchdown reception by either Jefferson or Chase will set a new SEC record of 19 in a season. Both are currently tied with Reidell Anthony of UF with 18 in a season.

True but Joe could have cleared majority of those records by the end of the a&m game and maybe even Arky! These numbers and records will be as true and legit as any. One just have to have watched the games or know how they were closed out.
Posted on 12/31/19 at 3:54 am to idlewatcher
Burrow might have had two extra games, but look at the teams Burrow has faced this year vs what Brennan faced that year.
Posted on 12/31/19 at 6:44 am to ffishstik
Just win. I don’t care if it’s 3-0 with four picks.

and won’t sniff the number of passes Brennan had that year.

Excellent post ffishstik!
I posted the following Cheat sheet for people who would like have an idea during the game of where Joe is relative to the competion percentage record,

I saw colt brennan in the sugar bowl vs Georgia. The dawgs destroyed him and Hawaii. It was over when it started. Dude was throwing the ball in the air just to not get sacked. Some records are shams. Joe’s are legit.

I disagree. Brennan did it with a WAC supporting cast. Talent level makes little difference to a QB unless as long as it's even across the line of scrimmage.
The system is the big differentiator. Burrow could not have done this in last year's LSU system, and neither could Colt Brennan.

This is insane. 4 year by an LSU great vs 2 years for Joe. It really blows my mind. I don’t care what era Hodson player in.

I did not think this was accurate because Hodson's career passing alone is 9115 yds... but his career rushing was -177 yds! Wow
