Kind of a misleading statistic if you don't consider the number of plays allowed in the first place.

1 Texas A&M (60.8)
2 Missouri (64.2)
3 LSU (64.3)
4 Vanderbilt (64.9)
5 Florida (67.9)
6 Mississippi State (67.9)
7 Georgia (68.3)
8 Tennessee (69.1)
9 South Carolina (69.4)
10 Alabama (69.9)
11 Kentucky (71.3)
12 Auburn (74)
13 Ole Miss (74.4)
14 Arkansas (80.1)

Agreed - I almost went back in and did it as an average per play, but I'd moved on by then

Best way to present it is probably "# of 10+ yard plays per defensive play"

I dont understand how we arent last in the first one too.

Because the front 7 is average, while the safeties are historically bad. Vs LSU, all offenses have to do is identify who the safeties are responsible for and then put the ball in the air to any one of those matchups and you’re almost guaranteed a big play.
