[QUOTE="kingottoiii, post: 328703"]
I went back and looked at how many times we punted after only 3 plays and compared it to our opponents and it made me sick. I wish there was a way to see this number nationally because I am curious how bad our O and D were. Anyway here are the numbers:
 
Total
SU O 39 for an average of 3.25 a game
SU D 21 for an average of 1.75 a game
 
Interesting notes: 
 
-The Pitt game was the only game we didn't have a 3 and out drive.
 
-Six times we had 3 in a game, once 4, and three 5 times! So that is 10 times of at least 3. 
 
-Defensively we had only one 5 times. Our best was 3 which we achieved twice, and happened to be our first two games. So we certainly didn't get any better as the year went on. In fact our last three games were all one timers. 
 
-Particularly bad on O were the Wake and Tulane games. For Tulane we opened up the 2nd half with a 4 and out followed by three 3 and outs. Seriously how in the hell does that happen? For Wake we started the game with FOUR 3 and outs and then followed that up with a TD and another 3 and out (so 5 of 6 drives to start the season). Again how is this even possible? I guess it was a good thing we went dark preseason otherwise Wake might have been better prepared!!!!
