Something Doesn’t Make Sense
So, after investigating the defensive statistics through our last five games (conference games), we discovered they are flat out awful. People claim we don’t have the talent yet, which means you all believe we are about where we should be in most statistical categories.
Below, I will list where we ranked nationally over our last five games in various categories, as well as listing four teams ranked similarly.
I’ll also include the average ranking of each school’s last four recruiting classes (2009-2012 - excluding ’13 since it’s all true freshmen)
I will be using Rivals class rankings, because I can’t get ESPN’s rankings after 25, for some reason.
One of these things…is not like the other.
