Coach Rab Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 Speaking of Alabama, it faces No. 4 LSU on Nov. 3, which looked outstanding once again in a 19-3 win over Mississippi State. clearly they didn’t watch the game. LSU looked bad on Offense in the first half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A&M is the number one team in the country in forcing punts and 3 and outs. They force a punt 59% of drives against them. That’s pretty impressive. They also force so many 3 and outs and that’s partly why the play count is lower this year. They are still giving up a few big plays a game though, thus the higher yards per play. Because they are so good at forcing 3 and outs, they may force 3 straight 3 and outs, and then give up a a couple of 40 yard plays. So giving up ~100 yards on 16 plays over 4 drives leads to a higher yards per play then giving up ~100 yards on 25 plays over 4 drives because you gave up a first down or two before forcing the punt each drive. In other words, this isn’t just the offense protecting the defense by holding the ball more, the defense is also doing a very good job forcing teams off the field. TOP does help though. That's a great combination to have right there. A defense that forces 3 and outs, and an offense that eats the clock. Now if A&M can start scoring more consistently they can be a legit contender. So far Jimbo and his staff definitely have the ship turning in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
