Stats like these?


certainly should take that into account, but should also look at stats about rushing defense...one team has played his #1 and #3 RBs, and that team is ranked 83rd in rushing which is the lowest NC has gone against. LF has only gone against 1 higher ranked rushing D...Chubb's top rush D has let up less than 50 yards in 2 of their games, but he said it was eye test, so it doesn't really matter. I just disagree when watching both them run that NC has gone against inferior talented rush D's.

Yes, but with such a small sample those numbers are heavily influenced by the 200+ yards LF ran off.

Also, the style of play the 3 or 4 teams those opponents have played factor a ton into it.

After 7 or 8 games those defensive stats will have more weight.
