    Where can I find college football starting field position stats?

    I used this last year:

    http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/fpa

    But it looks like they have not updated it for 2016.

    50 betpoints to whoever posts a link with an updated 2016 average starting field position.

    This is for college football, not NFL.

    Looks like it would require a little extra work to compile a season average from this, but nothing too complex:

    http://www.footballstudyhall.com/201...all-box-scores

    Now can you find a source for me that breaks down penalties by offensive vs defensive?

    Is this what you are looking for?

    I went ahead and created a season average spreadsheet for average starting field position based on the link I posted earlier. It's here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

    I meant to do it last night but got tied up testing an NBA theory. Probably won't have time to do it tonight, but should be able to get to it before Saturday.

    The request got me interested. I was surprised when it wasn't readily available. Should be pretty easy to keep updated at this point.

    This link gives the ability to compare field position:
    http://cfbanalytics.com/

    Warning: you do have to subtract from 100. The numbers differ a little from mine. My guess is that these don't include fbs games.

    I think this link is my new favorite toy.

    They are a bunch of quitters, Rudy.

    I guess I will have to do without it this year.

    I will probably have a losing season now Rudy.

    Thanks a lot.

    Collegefootballdata.com has tons of stats. https://collegefootballdata.com/
    Look under the DATA link at the top and pick the stats your looking to evaluate.

    If your specifically looking for starting drive field position, the following link will take you directly to this data. https://collegefootballdata.com/category/drives

    • Enter the year in the form that comes up.
    • Hit query at the bottom and scroll down for all the stats.


    You can download the data for spreadsheet sorting and you can select specific stats you want in the database by deselecting some of the boxes.
