[GreatGolson]

well our kicking is perfect. a 12-0 2011 has to start somewhere right?

 

[Kak7304]

I would like to see our defensive stats by half. Our defensive stats have been skewed by bad 2nd half numbers because of offense stalling and the D being out on the field for way too long.

Our D has been on the field way too long because they haven't been able to stop anyone on 3rd down.

Fumbles: Number - Lost 9 - 6

Key stat IMO

 

[bert2834]

Key stat IMO

Yeah, that is the one I was looking at as well.

We cut that to 2-1, we are 4-1 right now.

This looks encouraging to me. The first half of our schedule was supposed to be rougher [especially as to opposing defenses] than our second, and we are holding even or a bit better despite first year systems. A lot of people said that if we could get out of the first half 3-3 we'd be doing well. The stats say that's where we are. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Wjth respect to special teams production, the numbers look very good except for yards per punt. And our non-penalty numbers are a tribute to the Staff's famous attention to detail and our guys' brainpower. The negative in this has already been pointed out: turnovers. It's the only REALLY bad stat of the bunch. Hidden out-of-sight is our offensive inconsistency as well. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Once again, thanks Tom for the work.

Subtracting stats from the Stanford game, three stats stand out to me:

Pts per game - ND-27. Opp - 21.75
3rd Down Conv - ND- 23 of 57 (40.35%), Opp - 18 of 69 (26.08%)
Red Zone Att/Scores - ND- 14 of 16 (87.5%), Opp - 7 of 9 (77.7%)

Stanford put 37 pts on us, converted 11 of 16 3rd downs, and was 7 of 7 in the Red Zone.

Outside of that game, we are doing a good job keeping out opponent out of the Red Zone (Opp-9 chances, ND-16 chances) and doing a better job at converting 3rd down chances by 14%.

Last year opponents converted 34.11% of 3rd down opportunities.
