400+ yards/game is needed. Really more like 450. What bothers me is that this offense just feels more productive than the last two regimes. But when you look at total offense while the stat is better it's not a whole lot better. So digging a little deeper:
2012
Total Offense 105th
Plays per game 109th
Points per game 71st
Yards per play 95th
2016
Total Offense 109th
Plays per game 110th
Points per game 97th
Yards per play 100th
So typical Chump and Shark Humper years. We sucked at everything.
We're 6 games in and have played 4 SEC teams so the stats are now a little more meaningful.
2018
Total Offense 89th
Plays per game 127th
As we know total offense (total yards) hasn't improved that much and we are actually running a few less plays.
Points per game 49th
Yards per play 32nd
But then we are scoring more ~ a TD per game and we are getting 1 yard more per play. So we are doing more with less plays. The question I have is why are we so low on plays per game?
Just one more series per game would do wonders. Defensively we are 76th in plays allowed per game. Does the defense need to do a better job of getting the ball back? I'm open to suggestions.
