Yards given up on first downs

It seemed to me even though our defense played well first downs LSU always picked up 5+ yards.

Was that just my perception?

Most of their yardage came on first downs.

And none of it came on 3rd down. 0 for 13.

This was true throughout the first half, but not in the second half. Complete turn around in second half.

the defense made their job a little more difficult with the high first down yardage but man did the play great on second and third. hats off to a great defensive game.

First down rushing yards gained by quarter by LSU:

Q-1: 6, 8, 9, 10, 8

Q-2: 7, 6, 5

---------------------------

Q-3: (5), 0, 4, 9

Q-4: 3, (4), 1

----------------------------

Does not include 1st down on 1 yd line for TD in first half.

I did this chart for me and felt better when the 2nd half numbers were added in.

59 yards on 8 rushes in 1st half or 7.4 yds/attempt

8 yards on 7 rushes in 2nd half or 1.1 yds/attempt

That does give some definition to it and the only reason they had so many first downs to rush on in the first quarter was because we kept scoring to have to give the ball pack to them.

Exactly... 7 (I believe) of their first downs were simply the first play after AU kicked off to them.

NICE!!
