Week 1 @Dawg_Stats Blitz
There isn't a whole lot more that hasn't been said, and the stats confirm the the dominant performance by the offense, and arguably both sides of the ball. Although some mentioned the success that Oregon had on third down as the Ducks were 53% on third down. Yet, they only managed 4.6 YPP on offense which was doubled up by the Stetson Bennett show.
The offense's nearly 68.9% non garbage time success rate was the 5th best versus Power 5 competition this century.
The .772 Game EPA was the highest efficiency for UGA under Smart versus Power 5 teams. They bested that against U Mass in 2018, and the next highest EPA to a power 5 team last November versus Georgia Tech (.665)
Going through the splits reveals much of the same, but especially noteworthy is the 3rd Down performance. 10.8 YPP, 90% success rate, and the absurd 2.389 EPA. That's average, not explosiveness, but with 90% success rate, the explosiveness couldn't go much higher. A lot of football left, but this offense might exceed expectations.
