Charting the Arizona game

Woof

Back by popular demand, some stats from yesterday's game. I charted all the plays from the game yesterday, and this is what happened. Note, I have only excluded penalty plays, fake punts, and the kneeldown at the end.

Personnel
11 personnel - 46%
12 personnel - 30%
13 personnel - 20%
14 personnel - 3%

54% of our plays were multiple TE sets, which was almost exactly like the OSU game. Once again, I counted Westover as a TE, even if he was lined up in the backfield.

Success rate
Passing - 46%
Rushing 49%

1st quarter - 50%
2nd quarter - 54%
3rd quarter - 50%
4th quarter - 22%

Note: I updated success rate to the tougher definition (50% of yards to gain on 1st down, 70% on 2nd down, and 100% on 3rd and 4th down)

Rushing
Ran to the left side 40% of the time
Ran to the right side 44% of the time
Ran behind the center 16% of the time (Morris sneaks or where they ran up Wattenburg's backside)

We ran inside the tackles 86% of the time and outside the tackles 14% of the time. Exactly the same as OSU.

Our success rates and stats for these runs were as follows:
Left-side outside the tackle: 100% success rate, 20 yards, 10.0 YPC
Left-side inside the tackle: 47% success rate, 104 yards, 6.9 YPC
Middle: 33% success rate, 17 yards, 2.8 YPC
Right-side inside the tackle: 53% success rate, 77 yards, 5.1 YPC
Right-side outside the tackle: 25% success rate, 11 yards, 2.8 YPC

Success rate by runner:
McGrew 45%
Newton: 63%
Davis 50%
Pleasant: 67%
Morris: 17%
Sirmon 0%
Bynum 100%
McMillan 100%

Passing
We ran play action 12 times, or 46% of the times we dropped back to throw.

Success rate with play action: 25%
Success rate without play action: 56%

Success rate by receiver targeted:
Otton 75%
Jones: 67%
McMillan 0%
Davis 50%
Bynum 50%
Chin 0%
Nacua 50%
Westover 100%
Redman 0%
Odunze 0%
McGrew 0%

Down and distance
1st down:
1-3 yards - 2 times, 100% rush
4-7 yards - 1 times, 100% rush
8+ yards - 27 times, 65% rush

2nd down
1-3 yards - 4 times, 100% rush
4-7 yards - 9 times, 67% rush
8+ yards - 10 times, 80% pass

3rd & 4th down
1-3 yards - 5 times, 80% rush
4-7 yards - 7 times, 57% rush
8+ yards - 4 times, 100% pass

I'll try to keep these up as the season goes along, but I can't promise I'll get it done in a timely manner every week.

Westover, 100% back to back weeks. Nuff said on that

Would prefer 1st & 10 be closer to 50-50 run pass, but 80% pass on 2 & 8+ is promising. Almost 50% play action passes is better, they would look a lot more effective if McMillan and Morris could actually connect on one.
