Last year, I semi kept up with the stats, but I am looking to do keep up with them more closely this season. The gist of this thread is to see how the team performs this season, compared to the 2021 season, and to update this post every week. I am attempting to keep the presented stats something that everyone can generally understand, while not overwhelming you; these were some stats that I focused on last year but wanted to expand.
I am open for suggestions and corrections over the course of this season.
(Below are the final regular season stats to keep it as equal as possible. I am not looking to include the stats from the bowl game into this spreadsheet, but I will be a bit interested to see how their bowl game stats look vs the season averages.)
