IU Defense

[Bowlmania]

After three weeks, here's where IU ranks (nationally) in some defensive categories:

• Rushing Defense: 3rd (53.7 ypg)
• Total Defense: 3rd (180.3 ypg)
• Scoring Defense: (Tie) 12th (7.67 ppg)
• 3rd down conversion pct. defense: 17th
• Passing yards allowed: 17th (126.7 ypg)

Red zone D is the only number that jumped out as not good, as IU opponents have scored in all their red zone attempts. It's a deceiving stat, though, because there have been only five attempts and three of the five scores were on field goals.

Don't have time to do offense now but a quick glance suggests some of those stats are eye-popping as well. And here (below) is a quick take on how the Big Ten's Offensive Player of the Week is doing. You won't have to go far down these lists (QBR and Passing Efficiency) to find him.
