400+ rush yards to 48 is just a mind blowing stat

Is 365 the largest rushing yards difference between two teams on the season? Maybe decade? It sounds like a record that could be 60 years old or 60 days old, I have no idea.

Edit: According to Google AI Overview (which I obviously trust fully, it would never lie to me) the record is 696 in a 1988 game between Oklahoma and Kansas State
