Third-down conversion is shown as its own measure. It is not a substitute for overall play success rate. A dash means the source did not supply that field.

The Lab’s result test

Temple Owls won by 4 points. Q2 supplied the largest scoring swing in the winner’s favor, a +10-points period. The chart shows the result’s path; the box score helps explain what created it.

Temple Owls produced 274 total yards; South Florida Bulls produced 319. Yardage describes how much ground was gained, not whether the most valuable drives were finished.

Temple Owls committed 1 giveaways against the opponent’s 1. 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.
