SpiffCougRER is this poor, lay-statistician's attempt to quantify the production of receivers in the passing game - as they are responsible for their own production. :) I take the Passer Efficiency Rating and apply it to receivers with targets (gathered from a review of the play-by-play) replacing attempts. (I still haven't figured out if 135 should be the standard for receivers as well).
At any rate, here is the Houston game RER w/ season RER in parentheses.
Hoffman: 167.17 (115.76)
Apo: 351.10 (137.27)
Ridley: 255.14 (133.69)
Falslev: 162.16 (161.34)
Matthews: 71.40 (145.33)
Friel: 100.53 (60.32)
Lasike: -45.80 (-33.28)
RBs: -45.80 (49.81)
TEs: 100.53 (90.91)
WRs: 181.92 (129.66)
- Lasike has been targeted five times on the year. He has 2 catches for 4 yards and 2 INTs.
- It was the first game this year with both halves featuring a PER meeting the standard in both halves (159.32 & 166.83). It was just the second such game since the opener - last year.
- Five of the seven opponents have a winning record.
- BYU's 8 sacks allowed vs Houston are the most allowed since Florida St also got 8 in 2010.
- The team with the higher PER has won six of the seven games (Texas) and 27 of the last 29 (.931).
- Bronco improved to 11-7 (.611) vs teams with a red helmet.
- The 14 penalties are the most since the New Mexico game in 2010 and ties a record for most penalties under Bronco. BYU is 2-1 in those games scoring an average of 45 points.
- The 71 rushing attempts are the second most under Bronco (72 vs Texas). BYU is averaging 43.5 points in those games.
- As noted elsewhere, the 400+ yards passing and 100+ yards rushing by Taysom Hill is the first time that has happened at BYU and just the 7th time ever.
- BYU has averaged at least 8.7 yards per attempt in four straight games (9.5 vs Houston) the first such four-game stretch since 2006 - when BYU had two such stretches. BYU does not have a five-game stretch (my data only goes back thru 1995 at this time).
- Houston's 435 yards passing are the most vs BYU since Tulsa had 490 in 2007.
- BYU has alternating winning and losing the seventh game of the year every year since 2007. If this trend continues, BYU should lose their seventh game next year.
- BYU is currently averaging 263.1 yards rushing the most by more than 100 yards under Bronco.
- BYU's 1842 yards rushing has already eclipsed their total in 2005 and 2008. Following the game this week (Boise) BYU should pass the 2006, 2007 & 2009 totals as well. Reaching their average will pass every season under Bronco except 2010 - which is currently 343 yards ahead.
