Geez Boca...those defensive stas are downright depressing. Worst 3rd down D in all of D1 football!!! Not much better on 1st. 1st & 3rd down are obviously passing downs when facing our team. I know we're down at CB, but I wonder if things would be much better if Norrils and Cole were healthy...tough for anyone to make plays when your giving your opponent a 10yd cushion.

Someone post Bowling Greens defensive stats... they can't be very good.

Not that it makes things any better, but there's 128 teams in the FBS, not 125. The 125th might actually still be the worst in FBS, depending on where the 3 mystery teams fall.

I agree. The crazy thing is that without looking them up, most of would have guessed most of those numbers.
And here's one of my favorite quotes related to sports.

NCAA only ranks 125 this season.
Ga Southern, Charlotte, Appalachian State, and Old Dominion aren't
included and are considered to be reclassifying by the NCAA.
