Interesting stat. Counting only SEC play, here is the % of total minutes played for each team to hold a lead:

70.6%- Texas A&M
64.2%- Auburn
62.7%- Florida
57.1%- Vanderbilt
52.8%- Georgia
52.6%- Arkansas
48.7%- Tennessee
41.7%- Texas
40.2%- Alabama
37.0%- Kentucky
31.5%- Missouri

No wonder Nate Oats had to go to the pros for help. They’ve only led for 40% of game time so far in SEC play. They are extremely fortunate to be 3-3 right now.

Kentucky at 37% is also crazy. They led for just 1% of game time against Tennessee and 3% of game time against LSU and somehow won both games.

Texas A&M appears to be legit and should probably be taken serious.

If Alabama wins tonight, they’ll have the same record in league play as Auburn. Sick troll though,

Sorry you feel that stats are a troll. Bama trailed for 41% of game time against Mississippi State and 56% of game time against Oklahoma in two of its wins. Those are arguably the two worst teams in the league. Like I said, no wonder Oats decided he must cheat.

Again, sorry you don’t like stats.

Southeastern Conference Standings

GB
0.0- Texas A&M
2.0- Auburn
1.0- Florida
2.0- Vanderbilt
2.0- Georgia
1.0- Arkansas
2.5- Tennessee
3.0- Texas
2.5- Alabama
1.0- Kentucky
2.0- Missouri

This data doesn't appear to correlate with anything significant related to the current standings, nor would it logically be expected to.

LSU at 38.6%. One of the teams that has played way better than their record shows.

A fan of a team whose football team has made a living on “game control” and “eye test” suddenly has a problem with a game control stat.

Hilarious!

I assumed it would be, thanks. LSU has been in every game but one.

Not taking anything away from what aTm has done record wise in SEC play, but they have played 6 of their 7 games against SEC teams that are a combined 9-26 in league play.

aTm has @ Georgia, @ Bama, Florida, Missouri, @ Vandy, @ Arkansas, and Kentucky remaining on the last half of schedule. I think during that stretch, we see how good aTm really is.

40% of 6 is 2.4. It’s pretty well on track

Sorry I thought this was about basketball or because your attempt to troll was weak you had to stretch the variables to fit your narrative.

By the Alabama did not cheat only did what the courts allowed them to do. Now what your husband did with your mother is cheating.

So Bama has won a higher percentage of games than time they have led games.
Auburn has won a lower percentage of games than time they have led games.

Seems like one coach knows what the real object of the game is.

All true. Which brings up another interesting stat…

SEC Win% of Conference opponents played this far:

.659- Tennessee
.620- LSU
.580- Auburn
.563- Texas
.536- South Carolina
.521- Miss State
.520- Georgia
.500- Ole Miss
.488- Oklahoma
.469- Missouri
.438- Florida
.429- Arkansas
.429- Alabama
.420- Vanderbilt
.396- Kentucky
.320- Texas A&M

Yes, Aggies had an extremely easy first 7 games to start conference play.

Also worth noting that Bama and Kentucky have both played relatively favorable schedules thus far in SEC play and have both been very fortunate to not have another loss or two based on the way they played.

No one cares about what your inbred brain is rambling about. If you don’t like stats, stay out of the thread. It’s as simple as that.

Always funny to see someone from Alabama call another person from Alabama an inbred.

Well the average Auburn fan has a degree from Auburn University. The average Alabama fan didn’t go to college.
