So we only averaged 3.82 ypc against Texas? Hmm.. I would have guessed much higher, but it didn't keep us from winning 31-7.
Just double check from another source, but holding Texas to 59 yards total offense will do that, along with the turnovers

not really an excuse, other teams do this as well

Yea, you're right, but Collins and Jwill averaged over 4.5 ypc. Allen's numbers bring us down and he took 3 knees for losses to end the game. I'm sure the game being over early has a lot to do with it all.
The November games were @MSU, LSU, Ole Miss and @Mizzou. As bad as our numbers were, those teams only averaged 2.6 ypc combined against us. Several of those games were in cold, rainy weather and that played a part. All were ranked teams and we averaged a higher ypc then every one of them in the head-to-head matchups. I'll take that every time.

No they don't. Who else played the SEC-W slate and the best 2 teams from the East? Auburn played Georgia, but then got SC. That's probably the closest, but it's not the same.
