Advanced stats from Georgia Southern's 26-20 win over Florida on Saturday.

Confused? Visit the Advanced Stats glossary here. Or just skip to the words. I won't be offended. (Okay, I'll only be a little offended.)

Without completing a pass, Georgia Southern succeeded more on passing downs than Florida did. And this game was only close because of turnovers. That's the most succinct way I can describe what happened here. Yuck. Just no excuse for this level of offensive ineptitude. Florida's offense should just accidentally be better than this.
