eSECpn getting their facts wrong again....


Jun 23, 2016, 2:46 PM

http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/16377822/who-biggest-college-football-x-factors-clemson-tigers-florida-state-seminoles-rest-acc-2016

"Lawson and Dodd, who combined for 49 TFLs a season ago (ranking No. 3 and No. 5 in the nation)"

That'd be #1 and #2 in the Nation eSECpn...

They played extra games. So they led the overall TFL. When you averaged it by game they were 3rd and 5th.

ESPN wasn't trying to screw you over.

Jun 23, 2016, 3:28 PM [ in reply to Re: eSECpn getting their facts wrong again.... ]

Fair enough, but they didn't write it correctly...

If you are going to reference the total number of TFLs, the rank you reference should tie to that number...

Had they gone w/ TFL/game and ranked 3rd and 5th, that wouldve been correct.

Weren't trying to screw anyone over, but a poor job nonetheless...

Is he listed as tied for first on your screen?

Or is he listed as #3 like he is on everyone else's screen?

Send the idiots a correction and make certain they post it with an acknowledgement! Unless somebody points out their editing errors nothing will properly change.

There was a tie at #1 between a player from Louisville and Arizona State.

The #4 was from Northwestern.

BTW, he only said "tackles for loss" and listed the total tackles, not an average per game...so technically, he IS wrong...when looking at total tackles for loss, they are indeed #1 & #2, on more than 1 site.

This lists season leaders for tackles for loss...who was 2015's? Bet it's Lawson...

Jun 23, 2016, 3:56 PM

for 4th...3 and 5 is clearly incorrect

Re: At worst I still see Lawson as tied for 1st and Dodd tied


Jun 23, 2016, 3:58 PM

The reason they show it that way is the other 2 have 1.73 TFLPG while Lawson has 1.7. He's behind them by 0.03.

Re: At worst I still see Lawson as tied for 1st and Dodd tied

Yep...can be seen more correctly here...they are #1 & #2 in total tackles for loss...if looking at average per game, they are #3 and #5, as you can see there that the other two are 1.73 and Lawson is 1.70.
