Who would have thought this was possible two years ago?

60 offensive TDs
2 other TDs
16 Field Goals
30 punts
7 interceptions
4 fumbles
3 turnover on downs
3 missed field goals

Scored 78 times out of 125 possessions

It's hard to lose when you score on 8 out of 12 possessions per game.

ETA: LSU Opponents' total for comparison

28 offensive TDs
3 other TDs
7 field goals
59 punts
11 interceptions
4 fumbles
13 turnover on downs
2 missed field goals

Scored 38 times out of 127 possessions

I think my favorite stat there is the 13 turnovers on downs. Just shows the pressure we're putting on the opposing offense from the start.

Yeah. And they have tried 21 times (8 out of 21). They know if they don't score they lose.

60/125 or 48% being offensive TDs

We score on 62.4% of our possessions and score TDs on nearly half of our possessions while giving up points on less than a third of our defensive possessions, giving up TDs just over one in every five possessions.

I'll take those any day.

Saban going for it on 4th early in the 2nd quarter was when I knew we won. He was already desperate because he knew he'd have to be to win.
