We played South Carolina, Alabama, Auburn and Ole Miss last season during this stretch so it was definitely a tougher schedule.

Also had Cole starting these games and I'm sure the sacks increased big time.

at No. 1 Alabama, No. 21 Auburn, at Ole Miss, Coastal Carolina

I’d like to go look at the numbers to see how different it is.

So just looking at the PAs it looks like this:

2017 vs USCe: 37
2017 vs Bama: 42
2017 vs Ole Miss: 30
2017 vs Coastal Carolina: 25

2017 Total: 134

2018 vs Bama: 40
2018 vs Ole Miss: 21
2018 vs Tulsa: 19

2018 Total: 80

Now obviously there is only 3 games vs 4 so we would have to throw 54 times in the Vandy game to reach the same amount.

Having said that, we are giving up a sack every 40 pass attempts this year vs giving up one every 7.9 attempts when looking at last year over the month of October.

As others have said, this doesn't calculate the opponents strength which will effect the numbers. Still easy to say we have been better, for a number of different reasons.
