I'm still trying to figure out the rationale behind that...
No matter how you want to massage the stats...we're scoring less points than last year. And to any coach...6 points per game is a lot...especially with the close games we've had this year.
And...considering we have a completely veteran offense...there is no excuse for scoring less than we did last year. I know the defense helped us get some of those points in '05...yet we should
at least be doing what we did last year...if not better.
Keep in mind, that 22 points per game is with only 2 Big 12 games under our belt. Me thinks, unless the offense wakes up, that number could easily slide downward.
