Only defensive stat that matters.

Texas A&M ppg - 21.00000
LSU ppg - 21.5


Not true. Turnovers in your own red zone go against that stat.

Strength of schedule is also a factor.

More importantly, wins and losses trump ALL stats

Stats are useful, but it's important to accurately contextualize them.

Oftentimes, people put undue significance on the numbers, while devaluing what's happening on the field (or, how the numbers are being accumulated).

Also, there are many important factors that generally aren't accounted for with statistics.

I think the main issue for Texas A&M is stopping the run, but it's still early. The A&M D looks much improved over last year.
