[Shamoan]

per espn, we are:

40th in passing @ 264.9 ypg
19th in rushing @ 246.8 ypg
12th in scoring @ 39.0 ppg
11th in points against @ 18.4 ppg

for comparison om is:

33rd in passing @ 270.9 ypg
66th in rushing @ 164.3 ypg
57th in scoring @ 30.4 ppg
1st in points against @ 13.5 ppg

that vandy game really helped pad the stats, which in this case, works for both teams.

Talk about offensive balance. Even if it's a major priority, it's hard to get as close as we are.

Another thing to consider here is that while our passing numbers aren't as big as our rushing numbers, the reason they aren't is we usually get a big lead and run the ball down the other team's throats.
