Over the back half of the season Cade has averaged 6 yards per completion. If that was the number for the whole year it would be bottom 15 nationally.

We will have to pull the gloves off to have any chance of winning Another Clemson Championship.

It seems you are once again mistaken.

You are trying to determine what the data set is because you got caught in being flat-out wrong and this is an attempt to save face. That's a non-starter because the original post (and the source) already defined the data set, which is half the season.

Choosing a the back half of the season isn't incorrect, its the parameters defined. Just like choosing 1/4 of the season, or conference vs non-conference, home vs away, indoor vs outdoors, day vs night, etc

You are ignoring basic fact. The OP and the radio host determined the dataset for the discussion. You may not like it, but facts don't care about your feeling. It makes it a different discussion than you would like to have, but that's not your choice as it was the OPs.

In fact if that's wrong than so is subjectively selecting 4 games in the season, using a undefined term such as having a "pulse" and posting a stat in order to draw conclusions such as you did in my post above

Which is better than 6, but still the bottom half of college football.

Either way, the point remains that we have to execute in the passing attack tomorrow. If I recall, SMU has good stats against the run but pretty weak against the pass. This seems like a “run occasionally to keep them honest but otherwise air it out” type of game, but I’m no coach.

Starting with App State, and continuing through the Virginia game, our offense was very different than it was for the Georgia game or how it has been since.

Someone should go back to see which games Dabo had his laminated play sheet and which games he did not. I know starting with App State he didn't, and that continued for at least a few games.

So odd that we would change what seemed to be working really well. Did the Louisville cause Dabo or others on the staff to panic and change things?

It's not confusing. If it's confusing to you then you should probably study more football. The problem is that these defenses in the latter half of the season are able to get more pressure on the quarterback. That means that a lot of routes have to be shorter and the ball has to be released quicker to avoid sacks. Also, a lot of injuries to the offensive line didn't help that situation either.
