Alright! Graphing is always a little easier when the Tide wins big. And they won big vs. longtime SEC titan Vanderbilt. The charts look generally good this week — obviously — but I pulled out a few highlights, plus a few from other top games, too.
Team Success Rates over time (cumulative)
The Tide offense started efficiently, with 50-60% success rates, and they really held on to that range for the entire game. It’s not the 60%+ sky-high SR’s we’d expect from a true cupcake, but this steadiness is kinda remarkable.
To some extent, the Explosiveness line followed a similar path.
