Announcer last night really keyed in on the third down stats.

Yep...against SMU it was too many 3 and out possessions.

I was mostly happy about the final score stat.

Me too. It's great to be 3-0. I'm thrilled but still very concerned.

This is a big concern with A-Rod. 3rd down conversion rate is a crucial stat.

If you look at the play-by-play, virtuallly all the unconverted 3rd downs

Fair point. What about the first two games, and extending back to last season?

BYU got a first down on 5 of the 11 times they reached third down. They only punted 4 times

So while the 3rd Down play failed to convert, in at least 3 cases it at least set up a manageable 4th down

Last year we converted 28% of third downs and 50% of 4th. So far this year it's 28% on third and 80% on 4th.

Coaches don't care about 3rd down. In the least.

That’s crazy

Sep 15, 9:43am

By my count, they got 20 first downs. So it’s not like they had that much

Should have followed with, what about 3rd down on our side of the field?
