So for the last 6 quarters of Pruitt vs. Malzahn, Gus has managed 17 points.


I always find cherry picking quarters to be a hilariously absurd way to form an argument.

That's cherry picking? The argument is have any DC's figured out Gus.

For the last 8 quarters he's managed 38 ... Which is 19 points a game which would be well under Gus' average.

Better?

"Figuring something out" implies that there should be improvement shown in a linear manner. Football games are traditionally broken down into halves and quarters. It's not cherry picking to say something like...

1st half NC = 21
2nd half NC = 10
1st half last year = 7
2nd half last year = 0

...because it is exactly the type of evidence we would look for to determine if Pruitt was figuring Malzahn out.
