This was the first year since ‘98 that the team didn’t have at least two losses back to back.

Won 10 games giving up 29 pts per game, that’s crazy.

Incredibly consistent on offense, only one game held under 24.

As good as the offense was, only one game over 50. 2018 - 5 games 50 or more

Highest ranked total offense that I can see.   2012 a couple yds per game but ended up 17th.

Most points per game other than 18, 98 and 97

The offense was built around a bunch of guys with NFL levels skills if not athleticism.    Kudos to Nixon for building around players and execution.   It’s a great watch.

Ran 1000 plays without playing uptempo, long drives and ball control but not being able to run at will.   Highly unusual play and style profile, almost unique.   Third in the country in plays for 10+ yds, 91st in plays over 50, only one play over 60.

Nixon maximized a team that lacks game breaking score from anywhere athletes and a pure pocket qb into an excellent offense.
