[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 443565, member: 195"] I appreciate you, but again your facts don't actually apply. We "held" georgie to 17 pts in the first half when they had the ball 4 times, the last time being a FG drive which started on their own 30 with 34 seconds left in the half. They scored a TD on 2 of the their first 3 drives. By comparison, AppSt allowed 21 pts in the first half in 7 drives. So, while GT allowed over 4 pts/dr in the 1st half, AppSt allowed 3 ppd. Your reference to points allowed in the first half might lead some to think that GT's D did better when really we did much worse. Furthermore, while the QB change might be a factor in the comparison, it isn't a factor in the way you suggest. You say: [INDENT]The big difference is that Fromm was playing his first collegiate game vs App St and when he played us had an entire season under his belt getting comfortable with the uga offense.[/INDENT] The problem with this is that App St's D actually held Eason's O to two 3&out, before Fromm took over in the middle of the third drive. So, Fromm's O using HUNH scored on the AppSt D about as well as they scored on GT's D. You saying that the big difference is Fromm's relative experience actually doesn't make sense to me. Fromm did better against AppSt's worn-down D than they he did against GT. Fwiw, I agree with what you say is your "greater point," that one game comparisons aren't the best way to judge a team. I do think that they provide good data to inform your judgment. However, such comparisons must be done smartly and not by just putting out facts that don't actually apply. [/QUOTE]
