It seems that 400 and 500 yard passing games are more and more rare. I thought

Part of it has been the clock rules initiated the last decade or so shortening

Defenses have just gotten so much better. Rarely do you see recievers wide open and that was commonplace in the 90s

True. Defenses have really adapted, especially going clear back to the Detmer years and beyond.

I'd love to see the stats. My guess is that it has more to do with BYU playing a stronger schedule so our numbers are

According to Grok - In the 80s the average passing yards per game was 204. From 2020 to 2023 it's 222.

The distribution would be interesting to see there. I suspect a lot of teams
