I was curious of 1st v 2nd half numbers to be sure it wasn't my imagination, and here's how it plays out:

Opp 1st...2nd
Tex 24...7
Mizz 14...0
OM 17...13
LSU 10...7
MSU 10...0
UAB 35...10
UGA 6...26 (the one outlier)
Bama 6...7
A&M 21...7 (and 0 in OT)
UNI 28...24
TT 28...21
nich 56...17
Aub 21...0

what really stands out is how the good (i.e. the SEC) teams were able to adjust and shut down the offense in the second.

in SEC games alone excluding UGA, we scored 98 in the first half but only 34 in the second half.

That includes 3 total shutouts in the second half: Mizz, MSU, and Auburn each held us to nil, all winnable games if the offense performed at all in the second.

In addition to the three shutouts, there were 3 games we were held to only a single a TD in the second: LSU, Bama, A&M. One win and two very close losses (1 pt and OT). Again, two more that could have been wins if we were able to do anything offensively in the second.

OM and UGA are the only SEC teams we scored more than 7 pts against in the second half. The former, largely due to our defense, not our offense.

Oh dude First half to second half production is night and day.

The scoring by quarter breakdown over the season will make you sick to your stomach. We fade hard and fast after half.
