Numbers game: 11 stats you need to know from Week 11

Each Sunday, On3 takes a look at some interesting stats you should know coming out of that week’s games. Here are 11 stats from Week 11.

Minus-49: During the first half of its 44-7 loss to Clemson, UConn was nearly as close to minus-100 rushing yards as it was to zero. The Huskies’ first-half rushing total: minus-49. Contributing to that was six Clemson sacks and the Huskies having only one first-half run of more than 2 yards. UConn, which trailed 30-7 at halftime, got its only points on a game-opening kickoff return for a touchdown. The Huskies finished the game with 99 total yards, minus-17 rushing yards and a combined conversion rate of 0-of-18 on third and fourth downs.

3: Samford WR Montrell Washington had three touchdowns during the Bulldogs’ 70-52 loss to Florida, which Samford led 42-35 at halftime. Washington became the first FCS player since former Villanova and Philadelphia Eagles star Brian Westbrook in 1998 to score a rushing, receiving and kick-return touchdown in a game against a Power 5 opponent, as per ESPN Stats & Info. Samford’s 42 first-half points are the most Florida ever has allowed in a half.

5: Florida State DE Jermaine Johnson recorded five tackles for loss and three sacks in a 31-28 win over Miami. Johnson, a Georgia transfer, and Wisconsin LB Leo Chenal are the only two players this season to post at least five tackles for loss and at least three sacks in a game between Power 5 teams. Johnson is tied for fifth nationally in tackles for loss (15.5) and tied for fourth in sacks (10.5).

14: During No. 13 Baylor’s 27-14 win over No. 8 Oklahoma, the Bears’ highly ranked defense held the Sooners to their fewest points in a regular-season game since 2014. Oklahoma’s yardage total (260) was its lowest since Lincoln Riley took over as coach in 2017.

40: Mississippi State overcame a 28-3 second-quarter deficit during a win over Auburn, scoring 40 consecutive points on its way to a 43-34 victory. In the second half, Bulldogs QB Will Rogers had more than twice as many touchdown passes (five) as incompletions (two). He finished the game 44-of-55 for 415 yards and six touchdowns.

56: Kansas’ win over Texas was the Jayhawks’ first Big 12 road victory since 2008, snapping a 56-game losing streak in Big 12 road games. Kansas was a 31-point underdog. 

65: Texas now owns a five-game losing streak, its first five-game losing streak in 65 years.

148: Baylor RB Abram Smith recorded his seventh 100-yard rushing game of the season, rushing for 148 yards during the Bears’ win over Oklahoma. Smith’s average of 7.34 yards per carry is tied with Ohio State’s TreVeyon Henderson for second-best nationally among players with at least 65 carries. Texas A&M’s Devon Achane is first at 7.56 yards per attempt.

158: Jameson Williams had his latest big game for Alabama, accumulating 158 yards and three touchdowns on six catches during the Crimson Tide’s 59-3 win over New Mexico State. Williams has 34 catches, 664 yards, seven touchdowns and an average of 19.5 yards per catch in Alabama’s past five games.

209: Missouri RB Tyler Badie ran for 209 yards and a touchdown during a 31-28 victory over South Carolina. It was his nation-leading fourth 200-yard game of the season.

550: In helping Florida survive the upset push from Samford, QB Emory Jones accounted for a school-record 550 yards and tied a program record with seven total touchdowns. The previous total yardage record belonged to Tim Tebow, who racked up 533 yards of total offense during the Gators’ Sugar Bowl victory over Cincinnati in 2009.
