Dak Prescott's final career numbers:
734 completions - SCHOOL RECORD
9,376 passing yards - SCHOOL RECORD
70 passing touchdowns - SCHOOL RECORD
11,897 total offense yards - SCHOOL RECORD
111 total touchdowns - SCHOOL RECORD
114 total touchdowns (including receiving) - SCHOOL RECORD
2,521 rushing yards - 7th in school history
41 rushing touchdowns - 2nd in school history
Dak's 11,897 total offense yards are 3rd in SEC history behind Aaron Murray (-1,665) and Tim Tebow (-335). His 111 total touchdowns are 4th in SEC history behind Tebow (-34), Murray (-26), and Danny Wuerffel (-11).

Here's the crazy thing: If Fitzgerald (or Staley) can win the job and start for all of 2016-18 without injury, all of these records may fall. Dak missed 2 full games (13 Alabama, 13 Arkansas), missed most of two others due to injury (13 Ole Miss, 15 Troy), and split time with Tyler Russell during several games in 2013. If Dak had played 39 full games (other than garbage time), I don't doubt he would have finished ahead of Murray in yards and would have at least passed Wuerffel's touchdown numbers to approach Tebow and Murray.

After his freshman year, Dak had 312 yards (194p, 118r) and 8 TDs (4p, 4r). Fitzgerald is sitting on 364 yards (235p, 127r) and 6 TDs (3p, 3r), so it's not out of the question that he could get there.

Finally, Dak's fumble into the end zone cost him a tie with Anthony Dixon for the school record for rushing touchdowns. I wonder if they'll review the tape closely later and decide to give it to him.

Dak Prescott's final 2015 numbers:
316 completions - SCHOOL RECORD
3,793 passing yards - SCHOOL RECORD
29 passing touchdowns - SCHOOL RECORD
4,381 total offense yards - 2nd in school history (behind Dak 2014)
39 total touchdowns - 2nd in school history (behind Dak 2014)
10 rushing touchdowns - 2 away from the top 10

Receiver career numbers:
Career receptions leader: David Smith, 162
De'Runnya Wilson, 133 (5th)
Fred Ross, 127 (6th)
Career receving yards leader: Chad Bumphis, 2,270
De'Runnya Wilson, 1,949 (6th)
Fred Ross, 1,611 (11th)
Career receving touchdowns leader: Chad Bumphis, 24
De'Runnya Wilson, 22 (2nd)
Fred Ross, 10 (part of a 6-way tie for 10th)
If De'Runnya comes back next year, he should have all 3 of these records. Fred Ross would break receptions and yards at least if he returns. If they both return, it will be really fun to see which one comes out on top.

Fred Brown's career marks are 50 receptions, 785 yards, 5 touchdowns. If neither Wilson nor Ross return, he'll have a shot to break into all 3 top 10s.

Receiver 2015 numbers:
Fred Ross, 88 receptions - SCHOOL RECORD
De'Runnya Wilson, 60 receptions - 8th
Fred Ross, 1,007 yards - 2nd
De'Runnya Wilson, 918 yards - 7th
De'Runnya Wilson, 10 touchdowns - 2nd

Westin Graves:
15 field goals in 2015 ties for 5th in school history
83.3% field goal percentage (15 of 18) ties for 2nd in school ihstory
78.9% career field goal percentage (15 of 19) is 2nd in school history

Single-game entries in 2015:
Dak's 38 completions, 508 passing yards, 5 passing touchdowns, 554 total offense yads, and 7 total touchdowns against Arkansas are all school records.
Dak had 4 other entries in the top 10 in competions: LSU (34), Ole Miss (31), Louisiana Tech (30), and Auburn (29)
Dak's 380 passing yards against NC State rank 8th.
Dak's 4 passing touchdowns against Missouri and NC State tie for 2nd.
Dak had 2 other top 10 entries in total offense: Kentucky (465) and NC State (427).
Dak's 6 total touchdowns against Kentucky are tied for 2nd.
Fred Ross had 12 receptions (t-3rd) against Ole Miss, 11 receptions (t-6th) against both Texas A&M and Missouri, and 10 receptions (t-10th) against Arkansas.
De'Runnya Wilson also had 10 receptions against Arkansas.

Looking forward to more records falling in 2016.

We almost had 2 1,000 yard receivers this year. That is unreal compared to where our O used to be.
