Chris Rodriguez, Kentucky will combine rush efficiency with new offensive wrinkles

The argument can be made that Chris Rodriguez Jr. is the best running back in college football. No tailback does a better job of staying ahead of the chains and keeping an offense on schedule.

Success rate is an advanced stat metric that measures if an offense is staying ahead of the chains on a play-by-play basis. To deem a play a success, an offense must gain 50 percent of the needed yards on first down, 70 percent of the needed yards on second down, and 100 percent of the needed yards on third and fourth down.
