* A scoring opportunity occurs when an offense gets a first down inside the opponent's 40 (or scores from outside the 40). ** Leverage Rate = Standard Downs / (Standard Downs + Passing Downs) *** When using IsoPPP, the S&P formula is (0.8*Success Rate) + (0.2*IsoPPP) |

Most of the time, the Projected and Actual scoring margins at the bottom of these tables match up pretty well. When they don't, it's usually either a sign of funky special teams plays or a sign that someone didn't finish drives properly. South Carolina turned the ball over on downs from the Clemson 3 and 30 and missed a field goal from the Clemson 30. Like Auburn against Alabama, like ASU against Arizona, the 'Cocks created more scoring chances than their rivals but couldn't turn them into points. Kind of an important thing.
