The longstanding mantra about defense winning championships might still apply, but college football teams must have a strong offense to have any shot at playing for such a title.
With that in mind, there is no shortage of title contenders in the game this year, as explosive offensive numbers continue to be all the rage across the country. After six weeks of the 2015 season, there are 37 schools that average 35 or more points, including 12 that put up 40-plus points per game, while 15 schools gain at least 500 yards per game, and four are topping the 600-yard mark on a weekly basis.
