Defense still has work to do it seems like.. Pass defense for sure..

 

[ajkreider]

When you're up for most of the game, your passing defense stats are going to be elevated.

It will even out and be better than last year. A&M has an excellent offense imo

 

[JHallCanes]

It took Weigman over 50 pass attempts to get 300 yards despite having 5 star talent all over their WR room

**** these stats

 

[KrazyCane]

As the schedule continues to play out those rankings will continue to rise across the board.

Not being able to muster up over 20 ppg in 2022 at Miami is disgusting.

Joshua Tremaine Gattis is a war criminal wanted in over 100 countries for his actions.

Real talk.. school police should have taken him away in handcuffs.

3-0

Not really. You have to think, we've had leads and teams have had to throw the ball, a lot.

This right here is the big one on defense for me:

Avg Rush YPC Defense - 21st @ 2.74 ypc ('22 - 57th @ 4.06 ypc)

No more getting gashed consistently and allowing the other team to control the tempo of the game.

Stat milestone to watch:

 

[407cane]

a lot of teams haven't played someone with a pulse yet, most of them do Saturday (we don't)

should be the first week where the stats start to even out

 

[Disgustipated]

Defense has lots of work to do. Not down on Guidry at all but..........defense is still a big question mark from what I see. A&M had lots of success. Miami made its hay with the turnovers.

Passing efficiency defense is a better metric. If your opponent has to throw the ball 50 times to crack 300 yards, your pass defense did a good job.

Considering the fact they started in the red zone twice in the first half, I wouldn’t say they had a bunch of success. The “success” they did have in the second half was more so because of the lack of depth on the d line. Still a top 20 defense in most categories so far.

bump - updated OP

some thoughts,

offense proving to be in the elite class at this point - we'll see how that continues with really only one good defense remaining (Clemson)

defense proving to be very much improved in nearly every category outside of passing yards allowed, however we played a very good Connor Weigman and Bobby Petrino-led A&M offense early in the season so I feel that ranking will move up as time goes on

We’re also leading every game and that’ll make the offenses pass heavy and inflate that stat.
