To hold a team to less than 70 rushing yards and still lose? Gotta be some kind of SEC record

**Alabama's 6 rushing yards in a 20-14 win over LSU on November 6, 2021, is one of the lowest (and widely cited as among the fewest) by a winning team in an SEC game in the modern era.**

### Key details
- Alabama finished with just 6 net rushing yards on 26 carries (including sacks that subtracted from the total). Running back Brian Robinson Jr. led the team with 18 yards on 13 carries and a TD; Bryce Young had -22 yards on 9 carries.
- This was the fewest rushing yards by an Alabama team in a win since at least 1940 (tied with a 1990 loss to Penn State).

### Other notable low totals in SEC wins
- Auburn rushed for only 19 yards in a 28-24 win over Texas A&M on November 3, 2018 (fewest by Auburn in a win since at least 1967).
- Teams have posted 0 or negative rushing yards in SEC games, but those have typically been losses (e.g., Florida's 0 yards in the 2016 SEC Championship loss to Alabama; Auburn's -15 in a 1997 loss to Tennessee).

Absolute all-time lows for a winning SEC team are hard to pin down due to incomplete pre-1990s data, but Alabama's 6-yard performance stands out as a modern benchmark for how little ground production a team can have and still win a conference game.

WE CANT EVEN DO THAT RIGHT!!!!
