Note: Tried loading this yesterday but the spacing did not work . Here’s an updated chart.
One thing I have noticed this year is that the Dawgs have scored before close to halftime in several games. After looking it up, I realized that during their 9 game win streak, they have scored in almost every game at the end of the first half. Also, the Dawgs received the ball at the start of the second half in 6 of the 9 games.

Momentum into the locker room sets the tone for the rest of the game, and I hope they can continue the trend for the rest of the year.

With this defense, it’s a game changer.
Doesn’t matter if you get the ball to start 2nd half or not.
If you get it score, if you don’t, get a stop.
Doesn’t matter which quarter you score.
Offense should score at least 1 td per quarter.
Defense should hold to less than 20 points a game.
That 14 point swing from end of 2nd qrtrt, to 1st series of 3rd qrtr isn’t as crucial as who wins the 1st quarter (sets the tone), and the 4th quarter.
Oh yeah, that Bobo, he sure does suck…
