team specific rundowns each week. Here are the defensive performances against Navy this year:

4. Air Force
62. Maryland
248. SMU
258. Wake Forest
488. Duke
659. East Carolina
850. Central Michigan
862. Louisiana Tech
1065. Notre Dame

How in the world was East Carolina's 76-point defensive effort better than our 35-point defensive effort? We gave up 35 points on six Navy non-garbage drives. East Carolina gave up 55 points on ten Navy non-garbage drives (forced one punt and two field goals). Also, field position needs to be taken into account. An average offense against an average defense would have been expected to score 24 points on those ten Navy drives against ECU. On their six drives against us, an average team should have scored only 10 points.

- Probably C. He merits a second year at this point. - Joe, 2010-11-16, 11:20
- Army has a pretty solid offense, actually - HumanRobot, 2010-11-16, 10:16
- C - Greg, 2010-11-16, 10:11
  - I agree with an asterisk - Gator77, 2010-11-16, 10:41

    - I think that approach is correct - Jay, 2010-11-16, 10:44
      - I'm sure that Kelly was - Gator77, 2010-11-16, 10:50
        
        I really hope he acquits himself well - Jay, 2010-11-16, 10:56
        
        Diaco is off-limits to the media again the week - Pat, 2010-11-16, 10:53
        
        cue Bobbi Fleckman - Jay, 2010-11-16, 11:04
        
        My take: - Slainte Joe, 2010-11-16, 10:56
        
        Awfully inconsistent year - JRT, 2010-11-16, 11:33
        
        My numbers rate ND's defensive performances differently - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:05
        
        You have put a lot more thought into this than I did - JRT, 2010-11-16, 12:13
        
        "opponent adjusted" is the key - Jay, 2010-11-16, 12:33
        
        Compare to 2009 - BPH, 2010-11-16, 13:34
        
        Also, their last 10 points were "garbage time" per my data. - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:40
        
        you're pretty generous with the garbage time! - Jay, 2010-11-16, 12:41
        
        Feel a little bad for taking away Marecic's pick-6 ... nah. - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:45
        
        do you have a link - Jay, 2010-11-16, 12:11
        
        This game rank stuff isn't posted, no. I do a few - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:32
        
        thanks. really puts into stark relief - Jay, 2010-11-16, 12:38
        
        And there are some shitty ass teams on that list - BPH, 2010-11-16, 13:29
        
        what's the overall rank for each of those - HumanRobot, 2010-11-16, 12:11
        
        Here you go - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:25
        
        great, thanks - HumanRobot, 2010-11-16, 12:34
        
        Yep, ND ranks 41st this week in overall DFEI. - LaFortune Teller, 2010-11-16, 12:49
        
        I'd move Tulsa into the "Good/Very Good" column - Dylan, 2010-11-16, 11:50
        
        my take as well - Pat, 2010-11-16, 11:03
        
        I think he does too, and that certainly has not helped Kelly - Greg, 2010-11-16, 11:01
        
        his comments made it worse, however-- - Jay, 2010-11-16, 11:16
        
        Agreed. - Joe, 2010-11-16, 11:21
        
        Agreed. - Slainte Joe, 2010-11-16, 11:09

        Is air force a 3 options team still? - domer.mq, 2010-11-16, 10:47
        
        I thought Airforce was downright pass happy by comparison - Samari, 2010-11-16, 10:55

    - Kelly's comments in the presser today... - domer.mq, 2010-11-16, 10:43
    - If we don't improve on Navy, we have 0 chance to win this - Mike (bart), 2010-11-16, 10:24
      - OK, so we lose and fire Diaco - Greg, 2010-11-16, 10:28
        
        everyone has a bad day at the office - Pat, 2010-11-16, 10:35
        
        Don't get me wrong, I'm a Diaco fan - Mike (bart), 2010-11-16, 10:53
