BYU almost has more drives ended by missed FGs, turnovers and failed 4th down conversions (21) than they have punts (24) this season.

21 isn't almost more than 24

Is this what bipolar looks like. I think I understand now.

I’m still waiting for Bucko to chime in about how he’s been maligned here 😀

"Slightly less" = "almost more" when you're team just lost to Toledo and USF.

wouldn't that depend on the margin of error and the confidence level?

sobering stat

How many drives do we have ending in scores? (Yeah, I could look it up, but I'm lazy and you're the stats guy...)

14 TDs and 13 FGs

Indy Coug

That's 27 for you non-statisticians

I'm flipping a coin about whether you were able to do that in your head

Thanks.

In other words, we almost have more punts than we have scoring drives?!?!?!

Meh- can we get a number of locker room dance parties and memories made stat TIA

franklyvulgar

10/18/19 9:57am

Pretty sure that goes with the number of wins, so I would guess 2.

Lee Johnson had too few to qualify but that was because we scored too much.

I'm not convinced this is a bad thing.

Am I the only one one that is fine with this? The turnovers aren't ideal, but ..

When you look at how few times we've scored combined with how many other offensive drives we've squandered

Indy Coug

10/18/19 2:05pm

I get that. But what part of this stat should we be upset about? The punting...

COACHdrn

10/18/19 2:20pm

How about 2 for 11 on 4th down?

Indy Coug

10/18/19 2:23pm

I can understand that's bad. Are you saying you'd rather punt those 11 times?
