NC State’s offense seems horrible, but what do advanced metrics say?

There’s a pretty widely held (agreed upon?) view that the NC State offense is severely limiting the potential success of the 2019 team as a whole. The offense certainly didn’t show up in the 31-13 loss at Florida State last weekend, and wasn’t exactly confidence-inspiring in the win over Ball State and the loss at West Virginia.

Essentially, since halftime of the WVU game, the offense hasn’t really been there. That’s half the season to-date.

But let’s put aside feelings, “eyeball tests”, and other sensory evaluations and instead look at how the offense (and the defense, too) is stacking up versus the rest of the ACC in more advanced metrics.
