Let's Watch These Kids Grow Together . . .

Don’t forget Mach number.
Air density affects Mach number, which is a function of air speed. I think this is all beginning to make sense.

 

You have to throw in Barometric pressure too... Lol.

 

Absolutely

 

Wind shear

 

Matt would be proud of us

 

Surprised this hasn't been posted yet, must watch if you are at all into analytics or tendencies. Bud does a nice job of explaining in a rather simple way what the metrics like success rate and EPA stand for.



Some high level notes for those that don't want to spend an hour:

• Bottom 5 amongst power 5 teams in rushing, this was surprisingly low.
• Passing offense and total defense average. Defense almost dead center of the graph.

They focus almost entirely on the offense.

• High success rate with low explosiveness, compared UF to service academy profiles where triple option consistently gains yardage, but few big plays.
• 0 plays from 10 personnel, AKA 4 WR (This one stood out to me)
• Things that work: RPO, Deep balls to Wide/Slot, Screens
• Every rushing category is negative EPA, so we hand the ball off means we are taking points off the board, "that's terrible."
• BN runs about 50/50 Pistol and non Pistol. Pistol is good, non pistol is bad. It is night and day.
• One of the biggest inditements of BN. 68% run out of pistol, 64% pass out of non pistol. Paraphrased "Without knowing anything else, if the D were to guess run/pass based on formation they would be able to predict 2/3 of our plays."
• Against 2 high safeties we are 96% run when in pistol. Almost half our plays, if the D goes 2 high we run, period. Allows safeties to run downhill and stuff run game.
• Passing out of pistol is great, only concern is too many check downs.
• Got to break tendencies and get out of our "rut."
• Should be better than Vandy and SC on both sides of the ball. Still able to win against anyone because football so high variance.
• Biggest surprise: Mertz numbers at Wisconsin were bad, is the thing working the best in our offense. Defense playing well given how young they are.

 

Lol... and I thought no one was listening to me.

 

We're not as bad as I'd think from listening to people online...
