UF - 384.7 YPG
Scoring Offense:
LSU - 37.8 PPG
UF - 32.2 PPG
Passing Offense:
LSU - 122.0 YPG
UF - 246.0 YPG
Rushing Offense:
LSU - 346.4 YPG
UF - 138.7 YPG
3rd Down Offense:
LSU - 41.8 %
UF - 38.6 %
Time of Possession:
LSU - 33.0 MPG
UF - 33.0 MPG
Total Defense:
LSU - 291.4 YPG
UF - 296.3 YPG
Scoring Defense:
LSU - 22.0 PPG
UF - 14.3 PPG
Passing Defense:
LSU - 191.8 YPG
UF - 197.2 YPG
Rushing Defense:
LSU - 99.6 YPG
UF - 99.2 YPG
3rd Down Defense:
LSU - 33.8 %
UF - 31.9 %
Sacks:
LSU - 12
UF - 21
Interceptions:
LSU - 6
UF - 7
Strength of Schedule:
LSU - 49
UF - 21
Analysis:
- Both defenses are very good, but Florida has appeared to have gotten MUCH more pressure on the QB with the number of sacks.
- LSU has a great rushing offense obviously, with a average-below average passing game. Although they have great athletes at WR and they haven't really showed much yet, so TBD.
- Florida has a average-slight above average passing game with a below average running game to this point. OL is showing signs of improvement though.
- The most surprising stat to me was the TOP being the same. The narrative so far on discussion on this game has been LSU's run game will skewer the TOP in their favor, but Florida has ran a lot of plays this year, and kept control of the ball.
- Overall, both teams statistically are very even, with LSU having a slightly better offense, but having faced a slightly easier schedule so far, evidenced by the SOS.
- LSU's advantage not in the stats, is the night game in Death Valley. FL's offense hasn't experienced an environment like that just yet. It will be interesting to see how they handle it.
- Key will be the turnover battle. FL has only turned it over once in the last 3 games. To have a chance, they must not turn it over next Saturday, or at least win the turnover battle.
EDIT: Forgot about our special teams. MUST play much better to have a chance

Really the big one is SoS. Missouri had unbelievable stats too until we walked in. Kentucky put up over 300 no problem, too.

One stat I forgot to add was turnover margin.
UF is +8 and LSU is +6. Both teams take care of the ball and turn the other team over.

But, subsidiary, we actually have had to pass the ball to win and take risks. It's super easy to not have any turnovers when you run like LSU does.

Thats the key to the whole game though.
Somewhat hold Fournette down a little, and force Harris to throw into our secondary and hopefully we can make some plays.
Winning the turnover battle is a must.

If we can keep it respectable, and not give up too many huge plays we have a chance. I don't think LSU's defense is that good.
They've had trouble holding one team below 20 all year aside from Mississippi State, who would have scored 20 if they made that field goal.

i agree that sos will be a big factor. lsu hasn't played anyone yet. they played ONE decent team. ONE.
i think we can slow down their rushing attack some. if we make them throw on 3rd down more often than not, we win.

I was impressed with Harris' passing yesterday, I realize it was against a weak USCe but he looked better than pedestrian. If UF doesn't step up their LB play it could get ugly quick.

Their schedule is a joke. LF7 hasn't played a good run defense yet.
Syracuse is 44th and gave up 280+ on the ground to a BAD USF. MSU is 73rd, SCAR is 106th Auburn is 107th, EMU is dead last in the NCAA.
UF is 12th in rushing defense:(Rushing offense UT-21st,OM-50th, NMSU-83rd, ECU-95TH,UK-104th, and MIZ-112th).
LSU is 13th(AU-48,SCAR-70,EMU-74,Cuse-75,MSU-90, Red zone defense UF is 53rd and LSU is 111th.
3rd down Conv. % UF is 31st and LSU is 42nd.
Passing Yards allowed: LSU -37th(MSU-28th,EMU-60th,SYR-106th, SCAR-108th,AU-113th)
UF 43rd(OM-11,ECU-22,UK-64th, NMSU-74,UT-81, MIZ-93)
UF's D is better in the RZ, 3rd down conversion and has played better passing teams and slightly better running teams. I'm honestly shocked LSU is so bad defensively in the RZ.

Its the schedule...AU as we all know sucked whale penis and was the fav pick to win it all. LSU hasnt played anyone with a pulse...till now. We are going to punch that face in and stomp on it with hobnailed boot. Color me not worried.
