Some records are meant to be broken, while others will never be touched.

A few records we thought were untouchable were shattered in 2015 by a national championship team that is arguably the best in school history.

But there are still some records standing that will be there for quite a while.

Here’s a look at some of the Alabama records that will never broken:

CAREER SACKS

52 sacks
Set from 1985-1988
Held by Derrick Thomas

Thomas was a beast on the field and a nightmare for any quarterback. He holds single-game and single-season records in addition to this career record. And no other player has even come close to it. In fact, Kindal Moorehead holds the No. 2 spot with just 25 career sacks.

To put it in even deeper perspective, DL Jonathan Allen has the “best” chance of challenging Thomas’ record. But in order to do that, Allen would have to get 35 sacks in the 2016 season.

CAREER POINTS SCORED & CAREER POINTS BY KICKING GAME

385 points (83 FGs & 136 PATs)
Set from 2006-2009
Held by Leigh Tiffin

Tiffin is the son of Alabama legend Van Tiffin, and his dad — who owns the No. 4 spot — seemingly taught him everything he knows. He doesn’t just hold the record for most points scored by kicking. He holds the record for most points scored. Period. And he did it just one and three points at a time.

Maybe one day someone will come along with what it takes to break Tiffin’s record, but that kicker isn’t even on the Tide’s radar yet.

CAREER PUNT RETURN YARDS & CAREER KICK RETURN YARDS

1,752 punt return yards on 125 returns & 2,166 kick return yards on 90 returns
Set from 2006-2009
Held by Javier Arenas

Arenas is arguably the best returner in school history, and his records reflect that. He leads the punt return race by more than 600 yards and the kick return race by more than 400 yards.

No one has even come close to the records set by Arenas. And it’s not likely anyone ever will, especially when you consider that very few truly explosive players stick around for their senior season.

CONSECUTIVE PASSES WITHOUT AN INTERCEPTION

291 passes
Set from 2011-2012
Held by AJ McCarron

With the number of talented defensive backs in the league — and the amount of pressure SEC defenses bring — it’s not easy to go even a few games without an interception. But McCarron threw 291 passes without a single interception. Brodie Croyle is next in line with just 190 passes without an interception.

And in the 2014 Sugar Bowl, he also became the first Alabama quarterback to pass for 3,000 yards in a single season before Blake Sims joined him in that category the next season.

SINGLE-GAME RUSHING ATTEMPTS

46 carries
Set on November 28, 2015
Held by Derrick Henry

Tide head coach Nick Saban was heavily criticized for keeping Henry in the game against Auburn last season for so many carries, but Henry asked for it. Henry was the kind of workhorse that doesn’t often come along, and it’s not likely that another running back with that kind of drive will appear any time soon.

This record sat at 42 carries and had Johnny Musso’s name next to it for 45 years before Henry crushed it in the Iron Bowl. Incredibly, Henry toted the rock 44 times the very next week against Florida in the SEC Championship Game.

BONUS

LONGEST SCORING PASS PLAY – AJ McCarron & Amari Cooper

McCarron and Cooper hooked up for a spectacular play against Auburn in the 2013 Iron Bowl. It was officially a 99-yard touchdown — the longest possible — and this record will never be broken.

RECORDS IN DANGER IN 2016

SINGLE-GAME RUSHING YARDS – Shaun Alexander

Alexander racked up 291 yards on 20 carries against LSU on Nov. 9, 1996. Henry came close in 2015 with 271 yards against Auburn, but it wasn’t enough. If Henry can’t beat it, can anyone?
Challenger: Bo Scarbrough is shaping up to be the next Henry, and he will have the best chance of beating this record in the coming years.

CAREER TOUCHDOWN RECEPTIONS & SINGLE-SEASON TOUCHDOWN RECEPTIONS – Amari Cooper

In just three seasons at Alabama, Cooper collected 31 touchdown receptions. Even more impressive is that 16 of those came in 2014 (another record) and 11 came in 2012.
Challenger: Calvin Ridley already has Cooper’s record in his sights. He’s already broken some of Cooper’s records, and it might not be long before he has the others under his belt.
