Those stats are sooooo misleading it's ridiculous.

The Dallas Cowboys will win another game…..Care to shed your perspective on why the stats are misleading.

If we don't get pressure on the QB - it will be a long day in Waco

Well for one they've played 3 games to our 4. Secondly WHO have they played? That's a god awful schedule (not their fault ASU is ass) but they are. 95% of D1 teams are going to put up those exact numbers against those cupcakes. We've played 2 defenses about 10 miles better than any D they've played. So yes those stats are extremely misleading. You're acting like SS is sone superstar QB. The dude is grade A garbage literally if he scares anyone in this fanbase than I'd hate to see how you feel about facing Daniels from KU and Gabriel from OU

They're not only misleading, they're wrong.

We're 24th in total defense, OSU is 8th in total offense as per the official NCAA stats, and the total numbers they provide are off all the way down.

Even if they were correct, they're still misleading this early in the year. OSU's offense is clearly very good, but they have played so far the No. 71 and No. 94 defenses in the country in addition to the No. 74 defense... in FCS. All at home. Hence, misleading.

Those are the best 2 posts I've read so far this year! Thank you for the insights - others will enjoy them as well

You are correct though, we have to get pressure on Sanders but controlled pressure meaning we can't let him continuously break the pocket and scramble all day long
