I don't have the play list in front of me, but I believe the 2nd group with Tua is something like 0-4 or 0-5 on 3rd downs. With a small sample size early that's probably the difference in 39% and 45%. The first unit has been pretty good on 3rd down. Not perfect, but pretty good.

Pretty much, and it is actually even a bit better.

I may be off a bit, but here are my calculations for the 1st Team (Hurts) offense.

FSU 3/15
Fresno 3/5
CSU 8/11

So, you're looking at 14/31 - or 45% - but it gets a bit better. Three of those failed conversions led to 4th and very short and were converted on 4th down - so the 'keep alive' rate for that group is actually 17/31 (55%), which isn't bad at all.

Good stuff. Yea, we've done a great job staying ahead of the chains for the most part, and Jalen has made some nice throws on 3rd and 5-10 yards the last few games. Hopefully it continues.
