The Lab’s result test

Memphis Tigers won by 51 points. Q1 supplied the largest scoring swing in the winner’s favor, a +14-points period. The chart shows the result’s path; the box score helps explain what created it.

Memphis Tigers produced 674 total yards; Charlotte 49ers produced 209. Yardage describes how much ground was gained, not whether the most valuable drives were finished.

Memphis Tigers committed 0 giveaways against the opponent’s 4. That possession advantage gave the winner fewer mistakes to overcome.

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.
