3. Most 100-yard rushing games in a career

Currently, Nick Chubb is tied with Todd Gurley for second in school history with 18 100-yard games. He’s going to need 10 more if he wants to tie Herschel Walker.

Without injuries and with a better offensive line, Chubb may already have the record, but instead he’s going to enter 2017 with that as another goal to accomplish before he leaves Athens.

Chubb had 13-straight 100-yard games before his injury in Knoxville in 2015. After returning against North Carolina with 222 yards, his offensive line was exposed against Nicholls and Chubb only rushed for 100 yards four times for the rest of the 2016 season.

But with a better offensive line, Chubb should have an easier time reaching 100 yards each week. Plus, he’ll most likely have at least 13 chances to rush for 100 yards, maybe even 14 or 15. The opportunities is why I think Chubb could very likely break one of Herschel Walker’s records this season.
