While Stanford rides high this way, separately looking at differentials in yds/rush and yds/pass then adding the two is a little odd.
It may be more relevant to look at overall yds/play differential - at least that is the sort of thing most statistical power-ratings look at.

Obviously these don't quite match most people's personal power rankings. Strength of schedule has a lot to do with that, but not everything.
