ND was actually 37th in 4th-down conversion rate that year.

But we did tie for 1st place in the total number of 4th downs converted at 19.



maybe the news is not fake ...

I think they specify with at least 24 attempts, which in and of itself is probably unusual over 12-14 games.

We are also top-5 the year before.

Yes, I think he misstated the chart, but maybe I misread it.
