sorted ypp offense ranking plus ypp defense ranking

We were tied for 44th out of 130

That should be seven or eight wins.

Special teams and bad coaching decisions cost them

I do not think any other scheme would've resulted in better than 76 in yards per play on offense, I'm sorry.

Where are we in comparison vs ACC teams, ideally taking out non P5 games? Some team in the Sunbelt being 26th doesn't mean they are better. And some team in the B12 being 53rd doesn't mean they are worse.
 
Eye balling it for games vs P5 we are 10th and ahead of:

14. Duke
13. GA Tech
12. Wake
11. VA Tech

Crazy that Wake has the record that they do. Being 10th in conference is closer to a 6-6 team.

Quick and dirty no guarantees this is right. Against p5, we are 40th.

Includes teams who only played 1 p5 game

If you filter to acc, we were 8th out of 14

That was my immediate reaction too
 
Our 2018 team was better than Wake this year. That team could have had a legit playoff shot this season, all things considered.
 
Not certain how the OP was calculated.

Based upon my search, offensive ypp for this season (vs. FBS competition)

Season - 5.1 ypp (91st in FBS)
Last 3 games - 3.7 ypp (125th in FBS)

Passing ypp - 5.66 (104th in FBS)
Rushing ypp - 4.76 (82nd in FBS)

Just not pretty anywhere when you look at the whole of the season. Prior to last 3 we looked competent at times and then just fell off a cliff.

I looked at overall and vs p5, copied pasted from cfbstats to Excel, did formulas there

Vs fbs, we were 68th combined

That still means our record underperformed. We were 4-7 instead of 5.25-5.75 against fbs

the four teams right behind us are all going bowling, Wake is in the ACCCG. as you said, terrible special teams, poor coaching decisions, and oh yeah, don't lose to freaking Rutgers
