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.
