-4.5 in a game the other team scored zero offensive points and he gave them their only 7 points would like a word with you.Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostNelson's efficiency is 122.11, the overall NCAA efficiency right now is 134.27. Does an 10.0% increase in Nelson's efficiency (i.e. an average NCAA QB) really get us to 12-1 or 13-0?

In BYU's losses in 1998, BYU's defense gave up 41 points to Tulane, 38 points to a mediocre Alabama team, 31 to Fresno State, 20 to Air Force, 20 to Washington.Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostBYU had a 5th ranked defense in 1998 and finished 9-5 with a junior QB.
In a win that year they gave up 43 points to San Jose State.
Sorry if I am not going to equate the defenses to each other.

Interesting how you cite 20 point games as bad defensive performances. Besides, Washington scored 2 of 3 TDs on turnover returns.Originally posted by Hsaru View PostIn BYU's losses in 1998, BYU's defense gave up 41 points to Tulane, 38 points to a mediocre Alabama team, 31 to Fresno State, 20 to Air Force, 20 to Washington.

Yep, I remember the 1998 defense being very good. I also remember them being gassed by the end of most games because, due to the offensive woes, they were on the field so much.Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostInteresting how you cite 20 point games as bad defensive performances.

I was just citing all the losses.Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostInteresting how you cite 20 point games as bad defensive performances. Besides, Washington scored 2 of 3 TDs on turnover returns.
The 1998 defense was not handing wins on a silver platter if the offense showed up even somewhat like our D has in every game this year except Oregon State.

I don't think you've gotten the memo, scoring 14 pts against Notre Dame with 7 pts on a 28 yard short field and the other drive had a grand total of 3 yards passing for a total of ~15 yards passing on the two td drives is a heroic effort for a QB. Can't blame em.Originally posted by The_Douger View PostI'd blame Notre Dame on Riley as well.
You hold the Irish to 17 at their place, yor offense should be able to win that.

Crap! We're in trouble Saturday!Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostPelagius, you probably have quicker access to this information, but how many times has BYU faced 5 or more teams that were ranked in the top 25 scoring defense and what records did they have in those seasons?
Current Scoring Defensive Rankings
Notre Dame - 2nd
Utah St. - 6th
Boise St. - 8th
Oregon St. - 22nd
San Jose St. - 25th

I lived just down the street from Spartan Stadium my whole mission. It's hard to describe the atmosphere on game day, but if I had to I would call it "occasionally noticeable"."In conclusion, let me give a shout-out to dirty sex. What a great thing it is" - Northwestcoug

Or if he played any decent football the first three quarters. I didn't know anyone was still pretending riley played well at Utah. It was pretty obvious he shouldn't have been playing at all.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostYeah, if he only would have made those two FGs and that extra point.
