No shite. I guess the percentages don't help you if you aren't in the fricking red zone now do they?

Who's making that argument?

Florida State, Arizona, and Ball State have the most trips in the red zone. None are undefeated. Arizona has scored a TD in the red zone 52.5% of the time. Ball State has scored a TD 53.8% of the time. Perhaps if they scored at rates more like UT, UGA, and LT they wouldn't have lost a game they did.

LSU maybe beats Florida if they score a TD after the fumble recovery. South Carolina had an opportunity to win with a game-winning FG if their last possession went differently in a game in which they got completely dominated.

No statistic matters more than the score. Often times the difference in a game is who does better in the red zone. Ask Stanford.

I wasn't making any suggestions about what should be done. Just pointing out that the results haven't been very good and that something different needs to be done.

I'm confident the coaches will address the red zone issues because I doubt they are happy with the results unlike you seem to be.
