[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 43773, member: 195"] Thanks. I'm not sure you understood the logic of my post, nor the meaning of the word trend for that matter. My post was about scoring efficiency, not yardage efficiency. Ultimately, the game of football is about scoring and preventing scoring. The stats I provided indicate that over the last six years we're 16 in the former and 57 in the latter. Now, if you look at the thread title, you'll see that I was making a point about the scheme. Averages over an extended period are a way of measuring a program rather than a particular squad. Yards per play is also a good measure for comparing offenses. And when looking at GT's offense yards per carry. However, to see if there's a trend reflecting on GT, you want to look at actual numbers, not ranks, imo. YPP 2008-2013 vs FBS 6.06. 6.04. 5.73. 6.46. 5.87. 5.71 YPC 2008-2013 vs FBS 5.71. 5.12. 5.5. 5.7. 5.18. 5.07 YPA 2008-2013 vs FBS 7.8. 10.6. 6.5. 11.1. 9.4. 8.3 Well, it looks like @[USER=1069]bravejason[/USER] pulled some of the same stats. While we've fallen off some the last couple of years, I don't think the data relects a downward trend from 2009 as your post suggested. [/QUOTE]
