Quarterback Jalen Hurts set an Iron Bowl record by completing 75 percent of his passes on Saturday. That mark is the best by any quarterback in the Auburn-Alabama series with a minimum of 30 attempts. Hurts also posted totals that rank among the all-time Iron Bowl top 10 in total plays (48, 3rd); total offense (323 yards, 4th); pass attempts (36, 7th); pass completions (27, tie-2nd); and passing yards (286, 7th).

Wide Receiver ArDarius Stewart’s 10 catches on Saturday ranks tied for second by any player in Iron Bowl history (Alabama’s Julio Jones in 2010). The record for catches in an Iron Bowl is 13, set by Amari Cooper of Alabama in 2014.

Alabama placekicker Adam Griffith and Auburn kicker Daniel Carlson both scored 12 points by kicking on Saturday, tying for second all-time in Iron Bowl history behind the 13 points scored by Alabama’s Van Tiffin in 1985.
