Never too early to make the perfect picks
Compared to the last decade of UB's defense was about the 5th best we've seen, not that great, not that bad. But it FELT great mannn, 1) because we expected it to be so bad, 2) cause c'mon the offense did them no favors, and 3) they were the best defense we've ever had at preventing scores in the 2nd half. UB allowed 222 points in the first half, but only 109 points in the second half.
I ran this through a correlation matrix to see if I could find a correlation between stopping teams in the second half and UB's margin of victory and it didn't correlate. Maybe later I'll see if there is a trend nationwide between being second half stoppers and wins but for now, throw the stats aside...
