[Yikes, my long post just disappeared from the screen. Here is try #2.]

A problem with YPP at this point in the season is that it is heavily dominated by strength of opponent. In addition, to factor out style issues, I prefer yds per possession, though that is a hard stat to find.

The point of FEI is supposed to be roughly that - an opponent adjusted, per drive efficiency. However, it is too early in the season for the opponent adjustments to be accurate.

I don't see it up yet for this week on it's usual home at Football Outsiders, but it is up at BCfTOYS.

So, the list by FEI is,

Stanford  0.275  #2
Oregon    0.201    #8
UCLA      0.147    #20
und        0.141    #21
UW          0.119    #25
U$C        0.082    #34
KSU        0.068    #43
WSU        0.029    #56
c.a.l.        0.008    #63
UA        -0.019    #71
OSU      -0.032    #75
Colo      -0.055    #83
Rice        0.174    #114
