Ole Miss vs. Kent State: Advanced box score

Rebs 38, Golden Flash 17

By Will Gates
NCAA Football: Kent State at Mississippi Matt Bush-USA TODAY Sports

Every Sunday, I post numbers that help tell a broader story than what a traditional box score may offer. Looking at Bill C.’s stat profiles is a great way to quickly identify a team’s strengths and weaknesses once you become familiar with the metrics. If you’re curious, here’s a glossary with detailed definitions, but I’ll include some of the more pertinent stuff here.

Five Factors

Category Mississippi Louisiana-Monroe
Category Mississippi Louisiana-Monroe
Efficiency (Success Rate) 66.7% 42.1%
Big Plays 15 6
Average Starting Field Position 23.4 25.5
Finishing Drives (Points per Scoring Opportunity) 7 2
Turnovers 0 2
A play is successful if you gain 50 percent of necessary yardage on first down, 70 percent on second down, and 100 percent on third and fourth down. Big plays are gains of 20+ yards. Scoring opportunities include trips inside the opponent’s 40-yard line + all touchdowns from outside the 40.

Opportunity Rate is the percentage of carries that gain 5+ yards. Stuff Rate is the percentage of runs that are stopped at or behind the line of scrimmage. Highlight Yards per Opportunity measures how much you’re able to do after getting to the second level of the defense. QB runs don’t include sacks.
