Joe Burrow is now the SEC record holder for passing yards in a season.

Burrow set the mark at 4,279 yards on a 9-yard screen pass to Clyde Edwards-Helaire in the 3rd quarter of the Texas A&M game Saturday in Tiger Stadium.

Burrow takes the record from Tim Couch who played at the University of Kentucky from 1996-1998, and threw for 4,275 yards in 1998.
