The numbers below are just to further showcase how porous our run game is. I only used rushing attempts by our RBs versus FBS opponents. I did not include any rushes that were 3 yards or less that led to TD runs, which there were a few.
52% of the time we are gaining 3 yards or less per rush attempt. Look how consistent the results are.
