Alabama is currently the #1 team in the nation with an absurd 233.37
Ole Miss, the 7th team and second highest SEC team, is at 165.83

At a difference of 67.54, that means the difference between Alabama and Ole Miss is the same as the difference between Ole Miss and the 124th passing offense, Northern Illinois.

Or by another, there's less distance between the 2nd best SEC passing offense and the worst passing offense (Arkansas, 102.99) than between #1 and #2.

Passing efficiency defense is a critical stat. Alabama is now in the top 10. No team has won a championship without a team in the top 10 in this stat in a while.

We give up some yards, but we punish QBs as well. Alabama is second in INTs with 12 (North Texas is first with 13) and first with INTs returned for TDs (4).

Seems like he initially committed to Alabama, goes to WSU and leads the nation in passing.

It's not that hard to put up a ton of passing stats when all you do is pass. He's not even in the top 30 in the country in passing efficiency. He has so many yards because he has over twice as many passing attempts as the top-rated passer in the country - Tua Tagovailoa. Of course, Tua is averaging almost twice as many yards per attempt and is throwing a TD every 5.86 passes while Gardner is throwing a TD every 16.47 passes.
