Defensive Rankings



While sitting on my Monday morning conference calls (that I don't really listen to anyway), I decided to research some defensive stats. I'm posting them for your viewing pleasure...

Team Defense--National Ranking out of 120 NCAA teams

  • Rushing Defense 64
  • Passing Defense 98
  • Total Defense 82
  • Scoring Defense 77
  • Pass Efficiency Defense (whatever that is) 108
  • 3rd Down Conversion Defense 99 (44% of 3rd downs against us are converted)
  • 4th Down Conversion Defense 88 (63% of 4th downs are converted)
  • 1st Down Defense 56 (allowing almost 19 1st downs per game)
  • Sacks 74 (1.67 per game)
  • Red Zone defense 35 (76% conversion rate)

Just for kicks, I looked at our recruiting database on Rivals. We currently have 12 commits listed; 8 of them are for defense. Of those, 3 of them are DT/DE.
