  • Perfect 4-0 at home — a fortress
  • 3 road wins — proven ability to win in hostile environments

  • Winning by an average of 17.3 points against FBS opponents — comfortable and in control
  • Consistent offense putting up 34.9 points per game against FBS opponents
  • Overtime loss to Appalachian St — was one play away from a win
  • Dropped 49 points on Georgia State — the offense has another gear
  • Shut down Liberty, holding them to 13 points
  • Positive 14.4-point scoring differential against FBS opponents — winning the right way
  • Scored 40+ points 3 times against FBS opponents — one of the most explosive offenses around

Areas for Improvement
