This is interesting:
.................Tennessee Tech.........Dawgs
Total Offense....282 ypg..(98th)........328.6 (97th)
Total Defense....344.3....(67th)........366.6 (68th)
Pts Scored........24.3....(52nd).........25.8 (73rd)
Pts Allowed.......22.4....(59th).........29.4 (89th)
Of course, those stats for TT are not FBS rankings, but isn't it amazing how close they are. I'm not suggesting TT will give us trouble, but hmmmmm. Now, traditionally (with one notable exception*) CMR's teams have feasted on cupcakes.

I'm just wondering if THIS Dawg team can keep up that scoring average. Hell, I'll take points against anybody right now.
BTW, if anyone can tell me how to post charts without losing the pagination, this will be a lot easier on the eyes.
