[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 902067, member: 282"] Some of you don’t like From The Rumble Seat. If you don’t, then just ignore this link: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/2022/10/4/23386404/georgia-tech-football-pitt-advanced-stats-review-offense-college-football-analytics-epa-cpoe[/URL] (Defense should be coming soon). I did post some of the numbers from Bill Connelly here: Post in thread 'Today in Analytics...' [URL]https://gtswarm.com/threads/today-in-analytics.13496/post-902010[/URL] We were great on turnovers, good on the ground, had some big plays, had a solid defense, and were awful passing. Yes, Pitt has a really good defense, but it's not all them. We really need to improve our passing game. We need to improve our running game too, and our play calling, but our running game is a lot better than our passing game. One of my favorite plays was one of Pitt's screen passes.
