Interesting. What's the average for top 10 teams?

Baylor is 9th at 23.63 seconds/play

Interesting. I'm just curious if there's a trend one way or the other.

Oregon is 68th, Ohio State 88th, Texas 31st, Penn St. 101st, Georgia 69th

We've generally been playing with leads. That's clearly a big factor.

Tempo, in either direction, isn't bad in and of itself. This just lets you know how fast the BYU offense plays.

If 23.6 is #9 and 29.01 is #110 — it doesn't really seem to me like that much of a difference. Does that 6.5 second
