Joe Burrow is 1,077 yards away from passing Tim Couch (4,275)for the SEC record for most yards in a single season. Based on his current pace, Burrow will finish the regular season at 4,264 yards. He should have at least two more games after that, this record should be virtual lock.

Burrow is 11 TD's away from Drew Lock's SEC record of 44 passing TD's in a season. Burrow is on pace to tie Lock at the end of the regular season.

Burrow currently has a completion percentage of 78.9%. Colt McCoy has the current NCAA record at 76.7%. So he is on pace to get this record.

ETA:

Just for fun, since we know the SEC records will almost certainly be attained, I calculated what he is on pace to finish at assuming 6 more games (3 regular season, SECCG, 2 playoff games).

Passing yards - 5,330. This would be good for 6th most. It would only be behind 2 seasons from Texas Tech QB's (Graham Harrell 2007, BJ Symons 2003), 2 seasons from Case Keenum at Houston, and a season from Colt Brennan at Hawaii.

Passing TD's - 55. Would be good for second all time behind Colt Brennan's 58 in 2006.

5 years ago, none of us would have ever thought that we would have a QB doing this.

What a time to be a tiger!

The 1st two records you mentioned are SEC records, correct?

Not NCAA records.

I THINK this one has to be broken in the regular season to count, but maybe I'm wrong. Regardless I'm proud of this kid!

In all honesty this is the one that is most impressive considering the defenses he has played against. I would think considering the teams we have left to play he will break the record.
