StatTiger 3,188 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Another area I monitor is production on first down, where 45 percent of the game takes place. Here are the current rankings of first-down offense and first-down defense in the SEC: Auburn ranks 9th on offense and 8th on defense. Overall, Auburn ranks 9th in the SEC regarding the difference gained on first down. Auburn is +.32. Georgia, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Alabama are the top-5. Remaining Opponents: Arkansas 4th Alabama 5th Miss State 7th Texas A&M 11th The combination of first down production and run defense, makes the MSU and TAMU games winnable. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastAl_Tiger 228 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 So....it's actually 2nd down that's setting up the failure on 3rd down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No... it's first down. Prime example is the recent Ole Miss game. AU averaged 6.07 yards per play on first down but 100-yards came on two plays. In reality, AU averaged 2.7 yards per play on their remaining first down snaps. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taker 494 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 So we stay behind the chains and we're avg a little under 2 t.o. per game... but subject to give it away more or less... not a great recipe for success 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
