Total yards = 1925 stat. Look at defensive efficiency which I linked. Total yards is meaningless when you have different styles of football across the country which results in a 60% variance in possessions.


How about scoring defense where A&M is like 20 spots behind LSU. Total yards is still a good measure especially in the SEC where teams don't usually throw it 60 times a game. You've given up more points to every P5 team you played minus USCe than LSU gives up on average. Aggy D is 46th in 3rd down D (good to see 3rd and Chavis still alive). Your D isn't good by any stretch of the imagination. They have been good in the redzone. I will give you that but as a whole they are very very very average.

No on the whole they're #14. LSU is #10. Points, like yards, are adjusted for competition and game speed.
