It is always both. All I know you aren’t to compete for conference or a playoff spot you better have Top 20-50 units. If either unit is outside of that range good luck. The only way around that reality is one of the units would have to be elite.

Doesn’t matter to me who coaches the defense but it has to be a Top 50 unit every year. They have enough resources to perform at that level.

So how do these teams play each other while we compete against someone called “Young Harris?”

We could at least measure ourselves against Old or Regular Harris…

Absolutely hate it for ‘em. They’ll just have to console themselves cashing $EC paychecks.

We’re scoring 36.6 ppg. Excluding the first two cupcakes, it’s 30.3.

The defense is giving up 24.6 ppg, and minus the cupcakes, it’s 30.5.

IOW, we’ve been outscored the last six games. That’s total offense.

Like yardage in the middle of the field, those first two games just padded our stats. This team is pedestrian on BOTH defense and offense…

From what I saw neither team shoots it great…it was a nasty muck it up type game. Definitely going to be a emphasis on rebounding playing both of them. I don’t see Indiana being hard to guard because their spacing is terrible, even in the loss Tennessee showed that.

Which completely ignores the explosive plays that result in TD’s. They are ranked 21st in offensive scoring that is plenty good enough if it was tied with a top 40 ish defense. When it isn’t, yes red zone stat becomes more important.

88th in red zone offense.

EDITED: That was early yesterday. Now posted as 96th.

It is a brutal conference. UK is the most northern school in a football crazy conference. The expansion is going to bury the lower level teams. Almost every team they play has more talent than UK.

Offensively, we rack up a lot of mostly irrelevant team and individual stats in the middle of the field. Inside the 20, we struggle (88th in the country). Can’t beat really good teams that way.
