2015 Season By The Numbers

[RedDenver]

I must be missing something. How can we be 26th with a 44.8% conversion rate on O, but 34% on D is only 26th?


3rd down conversions: 44.8% (24th)

3rd down coversion defense 34% (26th)

I'm not really sure what you're getting at but my guess is you're misinterpreting the numbers. We converted 3rd downs 44.8 percent of the time and our defense allowed opposing offenses to convert 3rd downs 34 percent of the time. One set of numbers is offensive, the other defensive, so they don't really affect one another.

I get it now. The rankings are the reverse of each other.

No. The offensive and defensive percentages are independent of each other. They are only reverses if each team has only played one game (then that team and their opponent have reversed numbers).

Careful, don't want to go attacking the myth that we've got some blind JV players for an offensive line.

Let's not go overboard LOMS. They were good. But they were just.. middle of the pack/big 10 good.
