Were discussing a different issue then what the OP brought up. YOu noted that SU was currently tenth in 3rd down conversions, 17th in scoring, 19th in long plays, 25th in total offense, 8th in red zone attempts. I responded by indicating that was mostly against bad teams and history says its unlikely SU will be able to keep that up or really anything close to that because the offense usually craters later in the year.

I never insinuated that you felt they were going to continue to average 38 and 463, no idea where you got that from.

As for the collapse in 7 of 8 years late in the season, yes that is mostly accurate with a couple exceptions. Crater might have been a tad strong but I already noted how in 2019 most of the points were in garbage time, 2020 the O was awful late or really most of the year, 2021 it collapsed the last month + and even in 2022, SU scored 9 and 3 pts in 2 of the last 4 and barely broke 30 against a god awful BC team. Again I am not saying this year is destined to be a repeat but clearly the offense has been mediocre most years late in the season* outside of 2018
