The Lab’s result test
Syracuse Orange won by 1 points. Q2 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.
Syracuse Orange produced 509 total yards; UConn Huskies produced 499. Yardage describes how much ground was gained, not whether the most valuable drives were finished.
Syracuse Orange committed 2 giveaways against the opponent’s 2. The giveaway counts were level, so that total alone does not separate these teams.
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.
