[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 123489, member: 322"] I looked at this once - probably Football Outsiders stats. As I recall we are about 25th best on 3rd and more than 7. Still pretty damn good. What we did different from other teams was run (and make a first) on 3rd and long more than other teams. For us though, fourth down is more expected than unexpected. Anyway, the best way to get better is never get into third and long. That means you didn't do well on first or second down. Ohio State was phenomenally (lucky) at converting on third and long against Alabama and Oregon. But they were only abloe to do that due to poor first and second downs. That is not the way to win consistently..... [/QUOTE]
