Look at the box score from IU’s game

Post by bdkipe »

It puts things in perspective when you look at the Indiana- North Texas box score.

Go to the team stats and put your finger over the names in the top of the columns. Then read the stats from 1st downs all the way to TOP.

Then tell me which team had 52 and which team had 16.

Would you have rather had BSU beat us in every major statistical category and still beat them by 36?

Or would you rather have completely dominated them statistically and only won by 7?

The reality is, based on the stats, the scores of the IU-NT and UO-BSU game should be switched.

I would prefer to have “BSU beat us in every major statistical category and still beat them by 36?”

This shows a very efficient and discipline team. A team that dominated the opponent, scored at will, and prevented the opponent from scoring TDs.

“Or would you rather have completely dominated them statistically and only won by 7?”

This type of game stat lines is more alarming. A team that has done so much more than its opponent but has only beat them by 7.

I'm really unsure how you come to either of those conclusions.
