Agreed! we're about average. Question is if we're seeing upward trajectory

or are we just staying average on defense? i think that's the main concern.

BYU opponents' YPP against BYU, and against everyone else...

Good job

Oregon took their foot off the gas against us. They were at 8.36 YPP ...

This is why we use averages.

Your understanding of statistics is . . . incomplete. At best.

I'm not the one cherry-picking data to make a predetermined point.

Wrong. Both in terms of what I am doing and what you are doing wrong.

Coop

Works both ways though. USF, Wyoming, and USU picked up yards when BYU took

For sure.

No. You are dead wrong in this case because you are cherry-picking one subset of

Just stop. You clearly don’t know what you are doing.

Coop

Interesting you would say that because you just agreed with my point when

You didn't make that point at all. It is a valid point, and I would have ...

I'm sorry if you felt I was being uncivil at any point.

They aren’t. They aren’t valid or relevant if they are misleading.

Good stats stop counting those plays/drives at end of blowout

The issue isn’t yards per possession. But long drives.

Weber State's D is other worldly

That is a very weird outlier.

The game was a freak accident. Bonner threw two of the dumbest picks I've seen

I have basically been saying our d is around average based on all the stats

Bronco had a few mediocre defenses of his own through the years.

Problem is a mediocre defense is a good year for Tuiaki.

IMO, we won't see any upward trajectory until our recruiting improves.

shoganai

9/30/22 2:35pm

runnincoug

9/30/22 2:37pm

Per kotacoug it’s 100% scheme…I disagree but thought I’d speak for him today

9/30/22 2:41pm

Our most recent DL recruiting seems to be quite strong.

shoganai

I think that’s true. Hopefully the recent defensive line commitments really

But we can lose a WR, DB, RB, OL person and have the depth to be fine

You won’t get an argument from me that defense needs better recruitment.

87th in rushing yards allowed isn’t average
