[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 305622, member: 2957"] I think the most underrated stat is the number of explosive plays per game, where "explosive play" is a play that is a gain of 30 yards or more. Studies were done that show that most drives fizzle out after ten plays ... usually due to penalties, fumbles, etc. In other words, you ... not your opponent .. makes a mistake. (Bear Bryant was a big believer in this.) When I see a big play by Tech ... and then check penalties, t/o's, etc ... there's usually an inverse relationship. I think it's the most underrated stat and very few folks even report it. [/QUOTE]
