Call Chryst Dorothy - stupac2 - 10-27-2017

'cause for him there's no place like home:

Split Games Attempts Completions Comp Pct. Yards Yards/Att TDs Ints Rating Att/G Yards/G
at Home 2 24 16 66.7 193 8.0 3 1 167.14 12.0 96.5
on Road5 120 62 51.7 769 6.4 5 3 114.25 24.0 153.8

It occurred to me while watching last night that Chryst has been terrible on the road this year (keep in mind these stats include Rice as a road game), but serviceable at home. Looking at it, I think what we're seeing is both that he's been worse on the road, but also that it hints toward the veracity of "The CTCard Theory of Offense": Chryst has far more attempts/game on the road and performs far worse with those attempts.

(As an aside, CompSci or Yvonne, could we get more buffer on table columns? Getting tables readable is a big challenge.)

My feeling is that the entire team's home/away performance split is even more pronounced this year than usual, but I don't know I can easily rustle up the stats to prove it, or compare it to our previous teams or other teams.

Or, I should say, it feels like the offense is particularly prone to home/away performance issues. The defense, save being beat by a healthy USC firing-on-all-early-season-cylinders, has felt more consistent, even if consistent means me gritting my teeth every time the other team decides to run the ball.

I dunno about all that. The defense has been mediocre overall this year; it's benefitted from substantial turnovers luck.

But, yes, broadly the road performances have been poor all year. I'd rank them thusly:
GOOD: none
SOLID: Utah
AVERAGE: None
POOR: SDSU, SC
AWFUL: OSU

In the past, of course, Stanford's had several good or great road performances (2012 Oregon, 2013 Pac-12 champ game @ ASU, 2015 @ SC, to name a few off the top of my head). This year has been notable for the sheer odor of underperformance.
