The Lab’s result test

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns won by 3 points. Q1 supplied the largest scoring swing in the winner’s favor, a +7-points period. The chart shows the result’s path; the box score helps explain what created it.

Arkansas State Red Wolves produced 293 total yards; Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns produced 435. Yardage describes how much ground was gained, not whether the most valuable drives were finished.

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns committed 1 giveaways against the opponent’s 0. The winner still had to overcome a worse giveaway count.

The next test is repeatability. Separate staying on schedule from long gains, then examine field position and drive finishing. A large yardage total can coexist with missed scoring chances; a short field can make a modest drive valuable.
