Around SBN: Off Tackle Empire interviews Rich Rodriguez

Guess who won

If you saw these stats, who would you guess won the game?

1st Downs 24 17
3rd down efficiency 5-17 5-11
4th down efficiency 3-3 1-2
Total Yards 476 420
Passing 307 399
Comp-Att 22-35 32-46
Yards per pass 8.8 8.7
Rushing 169 21
Rushing Attempts 45 15
Yards per rush 3.8 1.4
Penalties 8-69 5-35
Turnovers 0 1
Fumbles lost 0 1
Interceptions thrown 0 0
Possession 36:19 23:41

Well, our stats are the first column and Cincinnati's are the second.  I actually finally got to watch the game and found that while the secondary did have its problems--poor coverage, bad angles to the ball and receivers--it was more our inability to get any pressure on the quarterback that killed us.  We actually should have won this game, damn.  Double damn, we lost in Vegas too.
