That’s why you don’t high light just one stat.

We’ve been playing run oriented teams so the passing D is at best TBD.

We are 17th in scoring D which is the most important of the D stats.

It’s early.

This is the first week this thread is useful as a game predictor.

South Alabama never got into the red zone.

I counted it and in 3 games the opposing team got in the redzone 5 times and scored 5 times

Ole Miss: FG TD

Southern: TD TD FG

South Alabama: 0

But it’s a bit deceiving stat line right now if you consider that the defense in 12 quarters ‘only allowed’ a team to get into the redzone five times. They have been stopping them in the middle of the field all day long

Teams nationally are averaging around 9 red zone attempts, 7 of which are scores, 5 TD's and 2 FG's. Almost 20% of those teams listed have only played 2 games which skews that stat some. Heck, Florida State has had opponents in the Red Zone 19 times and they have scored 17 of those times.

On offense, we have converted 12 of 15 Red Zone attempts with 9 TD's and 3 FG's.

We can't look past this week's opponent just because they're a bunch of nobodies. The stat we have on our side is that in the history of our program, we remain undefeated during bye weeks.

I believe that in at least two of those drives we ran out the clock. Which I think shouldn't be used against us.

Pretty sure we are favored to remain unbeaten this week.

Dummy.

We simply haven't had many defensive series with an opponent having a red zone attempt.
