Have you ever played organized sports? Do you have any idea how hard it would be to avg. 100 yds more through the air per game while repeating what we did on the ground last yr? Next to impossible

Spencer Ware 177 707 4.0 8
Alfred Blue 78 539 6.9 7
Kenny Hilliard 62 336 5.4 8
Terrence Magee 27 133 4.9 1

my prediction

Ford- 137 869yards 6.3ypc 7tds 1 fumbles
Blue- 83 602yards 7.3ypc 6tds 2 fumbles
Hilliard- 105 609yards 5.8ypc 8tds

yes i have played organized sports, and no it is not next to impossible. We throw the ball more average 50 more yards through the air we have threat on play action. Defenses don't stack the box every play which results in more yards for the RBs

because when you convert third downs more you get at least three extra plays.

510-471= 39 say you convert 2 more 3rd downs a game that is 28 more third downs 28x3= 84, which means 84 more plays say you split it 42 and 42 pass to run. there you go that is how you wind up with more rushes than last year

Do you know anything about Les Miles?

Cupcakes on our schedule will probably mean less yards due to the game plan. And no thats not a dig at Miles, thats just how we play

I'm not gonna predict individual stats, but i too think we run the table.


Anyone who says it is unlikely is just mental

I predict these predictions will be a lot closer than everyone who thought Lsu would roll Stony Brook.

If I were to make a prediction, I would first make it with the stipulation *barring any major injuries to starters*. Secondly, I would look at last year's stats, returning/incoming personnel, and then the teams on the schedule, and adjust last year's stats based on that. I haven't handcombed through this data, but to say you can't predict what a team's stats will look like is tomfoolery.

I would agree with the OP that we will run the ball more this year. And we will pass more. I see our TOP going up, not just a little, but by a ton. All we lost on offense was a great OLman, and a great receiver, everything else got upgraded. To me, the defense is more difficult to predict, but like I said, anyone with shite's witt about them could figure out how to predict the stats there based off last year's production, position by position, then adjusting for how you anticipate an extra year of experience or how big of a dropoff for new personnel, etc.

I think TM7 will just be average this year. Other teams will make sure they keep up with him and he will try too hard often resulting in penalties or other frick ups.
Someone else will emerge as a game changer this fall.
