One of Dave's lessons in handicapping college football, was to look for bad defenses to play against in November. Late in the season it is especially hard to play defense when you are not very good, and your season is lost. Below you will see a list of candidates to possibly play against. These 2 lists are composed of teams with the worst YPP (yards per play) against & the worst YPR (yards per rush) against. Colorado State, Louisville & Illinois look particularly vulnerable to "letting go of the rope" on defense this week.

The red highlights indicate teams that play another team on one of the lists.

Bold teams indicate that the team appears on both lists
