Weekly SEC Rankings Update for UT

[HawaiiVol]

Again, Stats are only counted in head to head SEC games. Last weeks rankings are in parentheses.

Rushing Avg. - 11 (12) +1
Passing Avg. - 3 (3)
Pass. Efficiency- 6 (7) +1
Total Offense - 9 (9)
Scoring Offense - 2 (3) +1
Avg. Defense faced - 1 (1)
Rushing Def. - 11 (11)
Passing Def. - 4 (5) +1
Pass. Def. Efficiency - 6 (8) +2
Total Defense - 8 (8)
Scoring Defense - 8 (9) +1
Avg. Offense Faced - 1 (1)
Net Punting - 3 (3)
Punt Returns - 2 (1) -1 UK is #1
KO Returns - 10 (10)
TO Margin - 2 (2)
Sacks - T10 (10)
Tackles For Loss - 2 (T2)
Sacks Allowed - 5 (5)

Even playing Vandy, UT has still faced the Toughest avg. Offense and Defense faced by the SEC so far.

Looking ahead at UK, they lead the SEC in TO Margin (+10), Punt Returns (13.2 to our 13.1, but they've only returned 6 punts to our 16 in the SEC), and Passing yardage. Our secondary and special teams will have to step up for this one. They're easily the worst defense by far in the SEC (ranked dead last in every def. category except TO's), so Ainge and Co. should have a field day if they don't cough it up. They're also the worst in protecting their QB, even though they have the most Pass. yds.

Enjoy.

OK, I found a place where I could host it where those interested could look at the overall breakdown of the stats. Let me know if you can access it. :dance2:

edit: nm, need to figure out how to share it.
edit2: another try. OK, I guess even with this link, you need to sign into a Google Account to access it. If you want to view it and need an account, just PM me and I can send you an invite.

but they've only returned 6 punts to our 16 in the SEC

Kentucky has forced 6 punts in 7 SEC games? I wouldn't brag too much about our 16, but 6 is really, really, really bad.

Does Colquitt even need to make the trip?

They only track the returns if it was actually returned for yardage (positive or negative). I didn't compile the punts forced, but I know they have more than those 6, hehe. Their defense is bad, but not quite that bad.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. For some reason, I was thinking a "No Return" got a 0, but it makes sense that it doesn't. OB, touchbacks, downings, and probably fair catches don't count as returns then.

My mistake, and thanks for the explanation.

Not that we force a lot of punts, but most teams punt away from us when Little is back there.
