With the departure of under-appreciated offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich, I was curious how his offenses stacked up against the other eight offenses in the Mike Gundy era. While doing that, I decided I had to see how new defensive coordinator Jim Knowles faired vs the kings of “bend don’t break” (Glenn Spencer and Bill Young) who covered nine of Gundy’s 14 seasons (SPOILER ALERT…it didn’t fair well).
There are a lot of things that go into determining how good or bad an offensive or defensive unit is. In this day and age of high-speed spread offenses, points-per-drive is one of the favorite numbers cited.
