Comparing the 2012 offense to 2011

I was curious to see how the offense this year through 3 games matched up with what we did last year over the same time frame. Obviously there's a difference in the quality of opponent but this is strictly a numbers comparison over that stretch.
2011
#3 Oregon: 273 Total Yards, 98 passing, 175 rushing, 22 pass/48 rush 40 points
Northwestern: 400 total yards, 225 passing, 175 rushing, 21 pass/45 rush 49 points
#25 MSU: 361 total yards, 213 passing, 148 rushing, 27 pass/38 rush 19 points
1034 total yards (345 ypg), 536 passing (179 ypg), 498 rushing (166 ypg)
70 pass plays/131 rush = 201 plays
65% run: 35% pass
108 points (36 ppg)
2012:
North Texas: 508 total yards, 192 passing, 316 rushing, 26 pass/46 rush 41 points
Washington: 437 total yards, 195 passing, 242 rushing, 19 pass/52 rush 41 points
Idaho: 472 total yards, 222 passing, 250 rushing, 23 pass/39 rush 63 points
1417 total yards (472 ypg), 609 passing (203 ypg), 808 rushing (269 ypg)
68 pass plays/137 rush= 205 plays
67% run: 33% pass
145 points (48ppg)

The run/pass ratios are of course much lower considering the quality (or lack of) and how quickly we scored and shut down the offense. Mett threw just 4 times in the 2nd half of Washington.
That playcalling balance is ugly right now but that should get a little closer when were not strictly run plays by the 4th quarter.

Overall Offensively we are better this year.
But theres a few things to note when comparing..
LSU 2011
Oregon at a neutral site
Northwestern at home
Mississippi State on the road and wasn't it on a Thursday?
LSU 2012
North Texas at home, will say no practice before the week
Washington at home
Idaho at home

128 yds per game.

yeah, less pass plays but much better passing numbers and total offense production. this is a great offensive unit.

That 2011 schedule was incredible. Game 4 last year, LSU was going on the road for a tough game at West Virginia. Their 3rd tough game away from home in 4 weeks.
This year in game 4, the team is just now getting their first test (even though Auburn isn't so good) and just now heading on the road.

i think Udub might be better than some give them credit for

I think you will see lsu pound the ball on the ground until they can't. And when they are able to stop the run ( which hasn't happened sofar ) lsu will air the ball out.

Just a wild guess and can't seem to grasp this comparison.
