I know stats are for losers, but I came across this and found it interesting.

Here a some selected stats for NU (rank out of 129):
Offense
Scoring #106
Red Zone offense #113
3rd down conversion % #71
4th down conversion % #119
Passing Offense #39
Rushing Offense #122
Total Offense ##98
Sacks allowed #105
Completion % #78
Defense
Scoring defense #77
Total defense #67
3rd down conversion % defense #58
4th down conversion % defense #15
Red Zone Defense #121
Rushing Defense #54
Passing yards allowed #83
Given our woeful performance in the second half this season, I expected the stats for the offense to be offensive, but am a bit surprised at the defense rankings.
I thought I remembered in the Akron game a broadcaster mentioning that Thorson was the second most-hurried quarterback in FBS last year, was trying to confirm that, as well as this year's data if anyone knows where those can be found.
