Wazzu's defense

HuskyClaws

Yards per play is probably the top defensive metric to look at.

http://www.cfbstats.com/2016/leader/national/team/defense/split01/category10/sort02.html

93. Washington State - 6.02 Yards/Play

Just behind the mighty Kansas Jayhawks.

Grouped down there with Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon, and Cal.

No reason we shouldn't score 40+ on these guys.


Also,

11. Washington - 4.69 Yards/Play

Babushka will abandon the run the second we have 2 runs that go for less than 3 yards.

According to statistics we should have scored more than 13 on usc.

So much for statIstics.

I'm setting expectations. Statistics have been right about our point total expectation this season a whole lot more than they've been wrong.

If Babushka is the reason we lose this game, then he needs to be fired. That mickey mouse offense isn't scoring more than 3 TD's on this defense.

I guess we shouldn't even play the game

You're not wrong. Colorado's offense is pretty pedestrian with a QB who has about as much talent as Cyler Miles, yet they lit WSU up. What's also promising is that WSU's pass defense is utter shit, while their run D is somewhat solid. That should play well to Smith's cute "let's air it out and pad Jake's stats" bullshit offense.

Except Liufau is about 40 pounds heavier than Jake and runs like a motherfucker. That's what really fucked WSU on dozens of 3rd and longs.

I'm not sure why but whenever I see that gif, I think of this:

WSU had a 4 point win over Oregon State, a 5 point win over ASU (with their backup QB) and a 6 point win over UCLA (with their backup QB).

They destroyed Cal but the yardage gained by each team was nearly identical. Cal couldn't put the ball in the end zone. I worry about that with UW because of what we have done in the last two games.

One team's offense underperformed in one game therefore YPP is proven not to have any predictive power?

Wow, teach me more please.

Ya we get it, it's leakier than @RaceBannon's underpants on a sunday morning in Tecmula's local diner. The powers of being old, rich and white.

Those are the kind of fucking retarded posts I recall him making a bunch at the other place. I guess we can safely say that those posts weren't Griswold's fault.

Yeah, he looked like Cyler Miles, shit arm and all.

Liufau is way better than Miles.

Not until this year. I'm still convinced he sucks.
