tOSU's percentage and our percentage will go down as soon as we go up against Wisky, to say the least.
I'll take it.

Agreed. BUT, regardless of who we have played, we are #1 at this point in time. Much better in the TO margin and #1 in 4th quarter scoring margin. Not bad at all considering the dumpster fire start we had last year.
As you mentioned, I am sure this will decrease as we get into the tougher part of the schedule. But for today, I will take the positive stuff.

We have been magnificent on fourth down! Man is HCMR gutsy! I guarantee we are pretty high on the list for attempts as well especially if you don't count teams that have to go for it because they are down 2 scores with 3 minutes leftNice! I'll bet we're ranked pretty high in 4th down conversions as well.:

Is there a minimum no. of attempts? Without knowing the answer, I'd guess there are a lot of teams that have gone for it only once or twice, and are at 100%.We are #64 in the country in 4th down attempts and #39 in conversion percentage.We have been magnificent on fourth down!
