Reviewed last years stats

[UTE98]

A few stats really stood out to me.

Sacks – 42, I had to do a double take. It really stood out as I think they only gave up 13.

TOP – Utah averaged just a minute more than their opponents. Not sure whether we scored quicker on each drive or the BYU, Oregon St, and SDSU games brought the number down.

Avg score – I think it was 36.1, I can’t rememer the last time  Utah team averaged 36 points over a season. Possibly not since Fassel. I know we had some high scores in 2004, and 2018/2019. But the 3-0 win over BYU and a few other low scoring games brought the average way down most years. Putting up 45 agains OSU didn’t hurt.

[2008 National Champ]

2008: 36.9 ppg
2004: 45.3 ppg
Utah has been over 30 every year since Ludwig came back, also 2014 & 2015.

1930 Utes averaged 42.5 which was the highest until the 2004 Utes averaged 45.3.

The 1930 Utes were 8-0. They only gave up 20 points TOTAL in 8 games. Five shutouts then 7, 7 and 6.

tOSU- 0 sacks

Oregon St- 2

SDSU- 1

Tds- 0

So 4 sacks in a game we win basically. Makes sense.

I bet we would win every game we got 15 sacks in!
