      Balanced preview from one of the best CFB analysts out there… his take is 2019 could be pretty special but could also arrive ahead of schedule in 2018… projecting 7-8 wins but wouldn’t be shocked by “double-digit wins”…

        Looks like a Molson Canadian to me. Maybe that’s not a bad thing? Definitely better than Milwaukee’s Best.

      And here’s the 2017 defensive data visualization:

        How do I read these thigs?

          My guess: 
          First one needs definitions for the abbreviations/acronyms.

          One could measure the total area of the “blob” enclosed by the lines between the points to guage overall quality.  Since, generally not every team can excel in every area, I imagine if a team is more pass oriented it would have the offense “blob” shifted more to the upper left.  And run oriented more to the lower right.  Balanced would be centered.  Same thing with defense.

          The further a data point is from the center the better.  

          In other words, if all of our data points formed a perfect circle on the outer ring we’d be Alabama.

        that adjusted sack rate though….

        if our defensive tackles had given a damn, our defensive ends would have done so much better.

      Even BYU fans are succumbing to the inevitable glory that is Utah football.
