[QUOTE="Legal Jacket, post: 184870, member: 601"] Just was perusing the stats at fbsdrivestats, and there are some things that really stick out to me (not counting FCS games). Not entirely sure the accuracy of the numbers, but we are WAY down on offense (no surprise there) but also worse on defense. First, the offense. This year our yards per drive is down from 44.5 to 26.7. Our points per drive is down from 3.38 to 2.06. Our rush yards per play is 4.4. The second worst under CPJ is 5.2 in 2013, then 5.4 in 2009. Last year we averaged 6.5 ypp. That's right, we are averaging a full two yards worse per rushing play this year. Pass ypp is also way down. We are at 5.7 ypp right now, again over two yards worse than last year (7.9). Tied for the worst under Johnson with 2010. Second, the defense. We are giving up 2.65 ppd, up slightly from 2.48 last year. Yards per drive is actually down, from 40.3 to 31.7. We are giving up 6.5 ypp on the ground. That's the worst total at GT in the last 10 years, from what I can tell. Last year was 5.8 ypp, which was only outdone by 2009 (6.0). On the bright side, the 6.4 ypp we give up through the air is the lowest since 2011. Last thing - the number of drives is up. Last year we had 119 drives that did not end at the half/end of game (28 ended in punt, 4 loss of downs, 11 fumbles, 6 picks, 9 fgs made, 6 missed, and a whopping 55 TDs). That's about 9.2 drives a game (again, not counting FCS). By my count, this year we are at (18 punts, 6 loss of downs, 4 fumbles, 3 picks, 4 fgs made, 2 missed, 13 touchdowns). That's 10 drives/game.
