College Football Records That Will Never Be Broken...

[GoSooners]

I hate to say never say never. But these records do look pretty unbreakable. Along with Alabama's 150 national titles and 900 bowl appearances...Ha!

Most punting yards in a game (1,318) back in 1939 will be almost impossible to break.

Say the guy averaged (Charlie Calhoun) 40 yards per punt...he punted the ball 33 times
during the game. Unbelievable!

Texas Tech punted the ball 39 times , their opponenet (Centenary) punted 38 times.

The weather conditions were so bad that TT only ran 12 plays that werent punts as they resorted to punting on 2nd down most times they had the ball.

This game also holds the ncaa record for fewest yards gained by both teams as they combined for a grand total of 30 yards.

The game ended in a 0-0 tie.

Good stuff Ty Bounce....

I didn't know the particulars of the game but those stats are amazing......

Here's one that could possibly be tied but will probably never be broken. Most touchdowns scored on punt returns in a single game: Record: 3 by Antonio Perkins, Oklahoma vs UCLA. I was at that game. There was a collective gasp every time UCLA punted the ball that day. I remember I kept telling my buddy "why in the hell does UCLA keep punting to him?"

hmm, baylor came pretty damn close to breaking the yards per game # last year. i believe they were way ahead of houston's pace before the final 4 games and finished just 6 ypg off the record

i could see that one being broken for sure

ha ha that's an insane # of punting yards/game

I definitely thought it could have been broken after Baylor's first 4 games. I think if it's going to be broken, it's probably going to have to be a team at the lower FBS level or Baylor again. Baylor is kind of the exception to the rule since Briles continues to refuse to schedule tough OOC games. And he doesn't let up on anybody he plays.

John Reaves record is going nowhere.

John Reaves record is going nowhere.

John Reaves is Lane Kiffin's father-in-law (fyi) - he's the father of Layla Kiffin. He's also a big drunk. Was canned from Steve Spurrier's UF staff. He was on Spurrier's first UF coaching staff in 1990 (for a few years before Spurrier cut his drunk ass loose!)...
