The biggest shift in Mathis' season has come in its ball security. Mathis committed 2.2 giveaways per game over its first 4 games (0-4), #1041 in section in that timeframe. In the 4 games since that slow start (3-1), the Pirates have committed 0.3 giveaways per game, an 85% drop, #130 in section in that window. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Mathis' last 4 opponents have averaged 1.0 per game, a #724 defense in section on the season, against 1.4 per game, #481 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (1.0 per game), Mathis turned it over 68% less than those defenses usually force. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #756 in section, well below the first 4 (#475), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, Mathis ranks #764 in section in giveaways.
The Pirates averaged 24.5 points per game over their first 4 games (0-4), #780 in section during that time. Few teams started slower in this department, and few have turned it around as sharply since. In the 4 games since that slow start (3-1), Mathis has averaged 37.0 points per game, a 51% rise, #382 in section through those games. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Mathis' last 4 opponents have averaged 32.5 points per game, a #796 scoring defense in section on the season, against 22.4 points per game, #347 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (32.5 points per game), Mathis scored 14% more than those defenses usually allow. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #756 in section, well below the first 4 (#475), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, the Pirates rank #559 in section in scoring.
Mathis' run defense has come a long way since the season's early weeks. Mathis allowed 9.5 yards per carry (1,039 yards on 109 rushes) over its first 4 games (0-4), #1138 in section through that stretch. In the 4 games since that slow start (3-1), the Pirates have allowed 6.5 yards per carry (537 yards on 82 rushes), a 31% drop, #719 in section over that stretch. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Mathis' last 4 opponents have averaged 5.2 yards per carry, a #705 rushing attack in section on the season, against 7.1 yards per carry, #278 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (5.2 yards per carry), Mathis allowed 27% more per carry than those rushing attacks usually gain. So the improvement is real, but it still trails what those opponents usually give up. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #756 in section, well below the first 4 (#475), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, Mathis ranks #1075 in section in run defense.
Something changed for Mathis' defense after its first 4 games. The Pirates allowed 48.5 points per game over their first 4 games (0-4), #1187 in section within that period. In the 4 games since that slow start (3-1), Mathis has allowed 35.5 points per game, a 27% drop, #832 in section across those games. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Mathis' last 4 opponents have averaged 23.7 points per game, a #825 offense in section on the season, against 36.1 points per game, #364 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (23.7 points per game), Mathis allowed 50% more than those offenses usually score. So the improvement is real, but it still trails what those opponents usually give up. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #756 in section, well below the first 4 (#475), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. Only Sinton broke through in that span, putting up 60 on 10/9. On the season, the Pirates rank #1078 in section in scoring defense.
• Club Mathis has won 2 straight, and a win would make it 3 in a row -- something they have not done in the 1 seasons on record.
