Message: [QUOTE="Deuga, post: 1901249, member: 5551"] The season to date stats don't tell us if we're improving or not. They just show fat, ugly numbers but this season is really about simply improving. I took the rush and passing stats/play/game and tossed out the longest rushing and passing play if one or more was over 20 yards. Why? Because breakaway plays just tells us what we already know. I'm interested in whether we're improving on the average play. We've played three tough offenses so I'm focusing only on them: UL rushing 8.5 yds/play; USF rushing 5.4 yds/play; ND rushing 3.4 yds/play UL passing 18 yds/play; USF passing 14.4 yds/play; ND passing 17.8 yds/play I think 3.4 yds/play is a good effort against ND. It seems our rushing defense really has improved while our passing defense has not improved. [/QUOTE]
