Title: Observation on Ky Defense Post by: BanditVol on November 12, 2014, 04:16:44 EST UK has faced some truly awful offenses this year. Below is the national rank of each offense, followed by how the difference between the scoring average of the team and what Kentucky allowed them in parenthesis:
Ohio 109th (-18) Vandy 101st (-12) ULM 120th (-5) Above is the worst group....all in the bottom 22. Notice that Kentucky held them below their typical average. Mizzou 70th (+9) UF 62nd (+5) LSU 57th (+10) This is the middling group...notice that Kentucky allowed all to score above what they normally score USC jr 24th (+2) MSU 12th (+5) Uga 7th (+20) The above average or good group. So whenever Kentucky has played an average or good offence, all SEC teams, they have allowed the team to score more than they normally do. I think with Dobbs, we are an at least average offense and wa are likelyill be able to score pretty well. They have also not played as well on the road and showed signs of fatigue last week vs. Uga. Bottom line...we should be able to score on these guys. But it's interesting that their defensive stats have been padded against some truly horrible offenses...which by the way, UF was until Harris became the starter. :biggrin: |
