I took PTO today because I knew I'd be unproductive anyways and I need to burn some PTO before January. Been looking at UGA games and their stats trying to get a feel for their defense. I decided to look at the 3 teams that are similar to us, or at least around the same rank in rushing offense as us. Those teams were Oregon, Kent State and UF. Not the greatest evaluation though as Oregon it was game one with a new QB, new coaches and new scheme. Plus, Kent State, obviously is going to be outmatched talent wise and I take their ranking with a grain of salt as over half of their games weren't against Power 5 teams with those stats. Florida is an interesting study because they are very similar in rank as us. They do run at a higher YPC, but we average more rushes per game and yards per game. I've only watched highlights from the UF/UGA game, but Etienne actually was rushing for 4.8 yards per clip, but only ran the ball 11 times. The other RB and Richardson also had 11 carries each for a combined average of 21.5 yards and 1.95 YPC. Yikes. Not sure if the game dictated that Etienne couldn't run more, or if his yards came in garbage time, or most yards came in one run, etc.. but he was clearly their most effective back. So for UGA , against above average rushing offenses (again, grain of salt with "above average rushing offenses") they are making these teams on average rush for ~100 yards less than their normal amount and ~1.99 yards per carry less than their average. Should be noted though that none of those 3 teams have offensive balance and only Oregon ranks in the top 75 passing offense stats, which again, Oregon was the 1st game of season breaking in new QB and coaches. So UGA was able to key in on all 3 teams run game. They won't be able to do that against us, or Hooker will have a field day. Anyways, here's the stats breakdown:

Wouldn’t be surprised to see squirrell and hyatt on the field at the same time at some point tomorrow though. Could cause some issues for a secondary that has a couple dbs that can run with hyatt

There’s something about having a top statistical offense that makes stats more fun than normal 😂 Been having a blast creating a stats aggregation program that goes and scrapes data from different stats websites and puts them in a database for me. Makes it really easy to filter out the stats I want and don’t want.

So far really only scraping NCAA.com stats and ESPNs FPI stats. Any other good sites that y’all use for CFB stats?

I think Kirby will limit our run game outside of a few chunk plays. He hates allowing the run more than anything. I think both teams will lean on the passing game and it will come down to if our receivers can win matchups. But bru and hyatt are third and fourth in the SEC at yards per target against man coverage and obviously tillman would be right there with them if he had been healthy. I really don’t know how you deal with that lol

When were you experiencing that? Wasn’t a thing when I was there, but I do tend younger than most of the board. Best deal we really had on the strip was animal hour at the gnome.

Ivy's beer bust. I think it was Tuesday or Thursday night. All you can drink draft Old Style from 9:00-12:00. Three bucks. This was about 39ish years ago, LOL.

Cfb-graphs.com is great for advanced stats. Dave bartoo has a patreon where he uploads weekly scoring efficiency metrics that are really legit (hint our defense is super underrated)
