Not too much new to report: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_State_Bulldogs_football_statistical_le aders

Dak now has 3,603 career passing yards. He's 117 away from tying Tommy Pharr for 8th. He has 1,469 passing yards this season, putting him more than halfway to Tyler Russell's record of 2,897 in 2012.

Dak tied Chris Relf for 6th with 28 career passing TDs. He'll probably pass Tyler Russell's career record of 42 this year. With 14 passing TDs this year, he's already tied for the 4th most ever in school history, and should shatter Russell's record of 24 (2012).

Dak (576) and Josh Robinson (689) remain on pace to enter the top 10 in single-season rushing yards. In fact, Robinson has a decent chance of passing Anthony Dixon's single-season record of 1,391, and Dak could do it too. To be fair, Dixon only played in 11 games in 2009, but that's always going to be an issue with single-season and career records like these.

Dak is now 4th in school history with 25 rushing TDs. He should pass Vick Ballard (29) for second pretty soon. Dixon's 42 is the record.

Dak and Robinson both have 8 rushing TDs this year -- it's a longshot, but it's possible that they'll both pass Vick Ballard's single-season record of 19 rushing touchdowns in a single season. Wouldn't that be something, for Dak and JR to be 1-2 on both single-season rushing lists in the same season?

De'Runnya (and Malcolm Johnson) are knocking on the door of tying for 9th with 9 career receiving TDs. De'Runnya is on pace to break Chad Bumphis's single-season record of 12 (2012).



Finally, if you have any photos that you've taken yourself of any of the following players, please upload them to Wikimedia Commons so that the players can photos on their articles. PM me if you want and I can talk you through how or do it myself:

Oh, I forgot one very important one:

With 28 career passing TDs and 25 rushing TDs, Dak now has 53 Total Touchdowns (which is only passing + rushing).

That puts him at #1 in school history, as he passed Don Smith's 52 (31p/21r) yesterday.
