Week 4: Totally Meaningless Stats Comparisons vs. UTSA

Christopher Walker · September 16, 2019

Took last week off on this because, you know – work, travel, and C A L I F O R N I A.

But now, back to (meaningless) business.

Compiled via http://cfbstats.com/. These are currently filtered by All Games, but once we get to maybe week 5 or 6, I'll adjust the filter to only reflect FBS competition.

Top 10 Nationally underlined.
