  1. Your total offense must be wrong. Gallon has more receiving yards than you post for #2 Toussaint and he also has rushing yardage and return yardage.

    1. The receivers aren't included on the Total Offense list provided by MGoBlue and linked at the top. But I agree that it's either a mistake or a flawed stat, so it's removed.

  2. It sure is nice to see linebackers as the top two tacklers on the team and not a safety.

    1. Yes it is, and with the way things are looking at linebacker, that's likely how they will continue to be.

  3. Amazing thing there is that Kovacs isn't in the top 3 tacklers.

  4. Surprised that Desmond Morgan is second on the team in tackles, he has really come into his own this season. This team is so deep at LB, very pleased with that.
