There is only one other time since '59 that the team has averaged this many points a game 6 games into the season, '98 the average 43.8 and the record was 4-2. Finished 8-4
In '96 the average was 39.5 and the record was 4-2., finished 9-3
The highest average through 6 games after those two years was '59, record was 6-0. Finished 11-0
Interesting note, the defense after giving up 21 in the first game, allowed 0,6,6,0, and 0 the following five games.
Averaging 43 pts a game through six games is significant. That is still a high number, good for 14th in the country.
Five out of six with 30 or more points. That's two more than all of last year, same as all of 2016. During Shafer's tenure that was accomplished 9 times in 36 games.
Just another indicator that this team is much more likely to wins with 8 wins than 4.
