Explain this DDI

Basically, it measures the "disruptive capabilities" of a defense.

I'm searching my Ole Miss inbox after lunch for the formula, but, if I remember correctly, it was something like:

Non-penalty defensive snaps/[(INT*4) + (FF*2.0) + (FR*4) + (TFL*1.5) + (SACK*1.5) + (QB hurry) + (PBU)]

I'm still searching.

Here's an example of our game versus LSU (27-24 lol) using that formula:

69/[(3*4)+(1*2)+(0*4)+(3*1.5)+(3*1.5)+(2)+(4)] = 2.37 DDI (which is )

The closer to one (which would be a disruptive play on every single snap) the better.

A more simple version is:

Non-penalty defensive snaps/any disruptive play

I prefer the weighted version because I place more emphasis on disruptive plays I find more important, such as interceptions and fumble recoveries.
