Some good dick swinging going on early in this thread.
Should be interesting to see where this goes. Or not.

So what I'm hearing is that if you switch the halves around then everything makes a lot more sense ... got itsalemcoog said:
If you were to go by stats then the Pac 12 is the best conference in the country. But if you watch the games you know that isn't close to true. You can post perspective stats all day. But last years game was over in the 1st quarter. And this years game you trailed almost the whole first half and looked like dawgshit doing it. Sure a W's a W and you can spin your stats however you want, but you guys looked like shit for 2 quarters against the Oregon State of the Big 10.Tequilla said:2017 Offensive Game Stats:
24 carries for 84 yards = 3.5 yards per carry
17 of 30 for 284 yards = 9.5 yards per attempt and 16.7 yards per completion
54 total offensive plays for 368 yards = 6.8 yards per offensive play
30 total points (7 from special teams) = 8.2 points per 100 yards of offense
0 turnovers
2016 Offensive Game Stats:
30 carries for 91 yards = 3.0 yards per carry
20 of 29 for 289 yards = 10.0 yards per attempt and 14.5 yards per completion
59 offensive plays for 380 yards = 6.4 yards per offensive play
48 total points (14 from special teams) = 12.6 points per 100 yards of offense
1 turnover
2017 Defensive Game Stats:
42 carries for 131 yards = 3.1 yards per carry
24 for 35 for 178 yards = 5.1 yards per attempt and 7.4 yards per completion
77 defensive plays for 309 yards = 4.0 yards per defensive play
14 total points allowed = 4.5 yards per 100 yards allowed
2 turnovers = 1 turnover for every 38.5 defensive plays
2016 Defensive Game Stats:
48 carries for 136 yards = 2.8 yards per carry
24 of 40 for 168 yards = 4.2 yards per attempt and 7.0 yards per completion
88 defensive plays for 304 yards = 3.5 yards per defensive play
13 total points allowed = 4.3 yards per 100 yards allowed
3 turnovers = 1 turnover for every 29 defensive plays
They are basically the same game and the same stats ... Rutgers is a little better than they were last year ... one was at home and one was on the road.
Perspective is obviously hard ... -
The thing is that the reason you look at it over a larger sample size is because things tend to even out ...Mad_Son said:like I've said multiple times that this was the same as last year (especially about the ol) but I'm not sure stats dump is the way to prove that. 99% of people already understand this and the 1% who don't aren't going to be swayed by a post like this
I don't necessarily disagree that we should have higher expectations, etc., but the reality is that this game, and our next two games, will all be vanilla in spots and our priorities aren't to go boat race each of these overmatched teams.
If that's the standard that most have then they will be bound to be disappointed.

Sounds like I hit a nerve with @haie for his stupidity in a deleted thread ...

You think that somehow both games against Rutgers were the same and use fuzzy math to back up your point. But those that watch and know the game see that is inaccurate at best and a flat out lie at worst.Tequilla said:

The thing that bothers me is how we used Gaskin. Our first series should have featured him as our number one running back. The point of these games is practice for conference play and we need to simulate some real play. Having Gaskin run the ball late isn't the same. I suspect this concept bothers some people even if they haven't said it.Tequilla said:

Like we all recognize we haven't opened up the full playbook, etc and I don't think most people have am issue with that. The real issue to me is how Jonathan Smith calls really stupid things, not that in week 1 we aren't executing perfectly. -
I am having a HARD time posting this is probably a triple post...Tequilla said:
Are they?FremontTroll said:1. Expectations are higher this year.
2. Defense was significantly more dominant in 2016. 2017 gave up 14.3% more yards per play even though in 2016 Rutgers gained 133 of its 304 yards on the last three drives after UW was up 48-3.
The expectations to me are exactly the same ... win the PAC North, win the P12 Championship, get into the CFP and see where things wind up.
LOL at 14%+ more yards per play ... that's just fucking comical.
Since you like to bring fucktarded stats to the table thinking you have me in a "gotcha" moment, Rutgers gained 103 of their total yards in the 4th quarter on their last 3 drives after UW was up 27-7.
One game was at home and one on the road (generally play better at home).
Rutgers has more talent this year with all of their transfers than what they had last year.
Analysis is clearly not your strong suit ...
27-7 not the same as 48-3 with a full quarter to go but regardless lets remove both fourth quarters:
2016: 2.81 yards per play.
2017: 3.61 yards per play.
28% worse. -
Haters are mad because they weren't shocked and awed this year.
