There are often w lot of stat-lines that could be meaningful or some statistics than are very misleading. One such stat in football us "Red-Zone Success." Now don't get me wrong, that's a fantastic indicator of one form of success, but like all stats, context matters and that's how people that strictly observe stat lines and not context of play get into trouble.
Suppose a team like Alabama scores often and from outside the Red Zone, but kneels down inside the 20 yard line 8-9 times at the end of blowout games. Frankly its red zone stat will stink, while its RUTS all over its competition.
BYU is 12/14 in the red zone in 2 games. But it is 12/12 when it attempted to actually score. Nevertheless there is no * for kneeling down in victory formation.
People that wager on football believe the RZ % and Pts/RZT are important factors in determining what team to wager on. The assumption is that both statistics are key strengths, when in fact two trips and two kneel downs in two games can skew both stat-lines negatively. LaTech is perfect in the RZ through two games. But people looking inside every stat believe LaTech is a significant under-(bull)dog to BYU this week. They looked at why BYU was 12:14 an D.C not 14:14. Facts matter.
