it is rather surprising how often the team with the most yardage loses this game.


I bet correlation between yds & winning is stronger thru 3Q

It seems as though in a blowout towards the end of the game the balance usually tilts toward the losing team - gaining 150 yards in the 4th Q against a prevent, while the winning team grinds out 50-60 while running out the clock.
