How much difference does a new OC make in the SEC?

We’ve still got a little less than two months until we find out what effect new coordinator Derek Dooley will have on the already potent Missouri offense.

Will Drew Lock keep throwing deep? Will the line keep pushing fools downhill and opening up huge run lanes? Will the Tigers keep running a play every, like, three seconds?

We don’t know yet. What we can do until that point is analyze what effect new offensive coordinators have had on SEC offenses in the recent past.

I looked at the 27 new offensive coordinator hires at SEC schools since 2013 and saw what sort of numbers they put up in their first seasons, compared to the years before.
