WMD's Armchair QB: Fried Rice Edition
Gents, the Fried Rice Edition of Armchair QB is up for your enjoyment. You know the drill. Let's talk Liberty Bowl football!
It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

7. State was great at getting off the field on 3rd down yesterday. Only allowed Rice to convert 4-14 3rd downs. For those counting, that's 10 3-and-outs.
That is incorrect. That is not how the statistic works. They were 4-14 on 3rd downs. That does not mean 10 3-and-outs. Not even close.

Great read. Thanks, WMD. Waiting nine months for the opener is going to be excruciating.

Did we really account for 10 3 and outs? I don't think we had 10 3 and outs... That stat means that out of 14 opportunities to convert on third downs, they succeeded 4 times. That doesn't necessarily mean the result was a "3 and out." They could have converted on a 1st or 2nd down earlier in the drive.
That is still an impressive stat...

That is what I pointed out earlier. You can't say 14-4=10. That doesn't give you the number of 3-and-outs. Good article though. WMD does a good job.

I completely read over your post... sorry bout that.
I did enjoy the article and agree with most everything you said, WMD. We need a ST overhaul next year big time.
