Football spring camps have started, along with spring games and scrimmages. Recruits have been signed, early admittance athletes are practicing with teams, and everyone is convinced that this season their team is going to win the conference and make the playoffs, or at least a New Year’s Day Bowl.

Hall of Fame Coach Bill Walsh created the advanced statistics as a way to measure his team’s strengths and weaknesses.
