    Default NDSU 2017 v NDSU 2016

    Statistic comparison (conference games only)

    2017 v 1016

    Scoring offense: 32.6 v 26.6
    Scoring defense: 14.4 v 13.2
    Total offense: 406.6 v 380.2
    Total defense: 287.3 v 311.9
    Rushing offense: 225.6 v 236.2
    Rushing defense: 133.4 v 106.4
    Passing offense: 180.4 v 144.0
    Passing defense: 173.4 v 205.9

    Pretty comparable. The scoring differential is about +5 this year vs last. Somewhat surprisingly to me is that the rush defense is giving up that many more yards (this year compared to last, that is.)

    Think the tougher early season schedule had something to do with the tighter scoring diff?

    Interesting. I don't have the time to look, but I'd be curious how all of our blowouts factor into the stats this year (i.e., yards in garbage time). With last years non-conference schedule the starters were in every game until the end it seemed.

    I'd be curious what the 2017 v 2016 comparison would look like for MVFC only.

    Think stats may be slanted quite a bit because for Non-conference...
    -2016 was: Charleston Southern, EWU, @Iowa
    -2017 was: Miss Valley St, @EWU, Robert Morris

    Yes, but he put it in parentheses...(you don't read things in parentheses).

    Those are the parts you read in your head so I can see why some on this board struggle since they can't read it out loud to themselves.

    Well, duh.*

    I did do conference only because I thought it was a better comparison. The MVFC itself seems a bit stronger this year. If I include non-conference games, NDSU is looking miles better this year.

    * everybody knows the real info is in the footnotes.

    Expecting us to read the thread prior to posting on it is expecting a bit much of us, don't you think?
