SEASON NOTES
The biggest shift in Santa Rita's season has come in its offense. Santa Rita averaged 8.6 points per game over its first 7 games (1-6), #222 in section in that timeframe. Over the stretch of 3 games that followed (2-1), the Eagles have averaged 22.3 points per game, a 161% rise, #143 in section in that window. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Santa Rita's last 3 opponents have averaged 34.4 points per game, a #200 scoring defense in section on the season, against 28.9 points per game, #164 for the first 7. Measured against those opponents' norms (34.4 points per game), Santa Rita scored 35% less than those defenses usually allow. 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 3 opponents average a rating that would rank #244 in section, well below the first 7 (#199), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, Santa Rita ranks #216 in section in scoring.
Santa Rita's run defense from the opening weeks has gone missing since. The Eagles allowed 4.3 yards per carry (375 yards on 88 rushes) over their first 3 games (1-2), #54 in section during that time. In the 7 games since that hot start (2-5), Santa Rita has allowed 9.1 yards per carry (1,185 yards on 130 rushes), a 114% rise, #214 in section through those games. The schedule has a lot to do with it: Santa Rita's last 7 opponents have averaged 6.4 yards per carry, a #92 rushing attack in section on the season, against 4.9 yards per carry, #164 for the first 3. Measured against those opponents' norms (6.4 yards per carry), Santa Rita allowed 43% more per carry than those rushing attacks usually gain. On the season, the Eagles rank #170 in section in run defense.
Something changed for Santa Rita's ball security after its first 5 games. Santa Rita committed 1.8 giveaways per game over its first 5 games (1-4), #148 in section through that stretch. In the 5 games since that hot start (2-3), the Eagles have committed 3.3 giveaways per game, an 85% rise, #243 in section over that stretch. The schedule has a lot to do with it: Santa Rita's last 5 opponents have averaged 1.8 per game, a #95 defense in section on the season, against 1.6 per game, #124 for the first 5. Measured against those opponents' norms (1.8 per game), Santa Rita turned it over 88% more than those defenses usually force. On the season, Santa Rita ranks #216 in section in giveaways.
The Eagles allowed 28.9 points per game over their first 7 games (1-6), #160 in section within that period. Few teams started slower in this department, and few have turned it around as sharply since. Over the stretch of 3 games that followed (2-1), Santa Rita has allowed 6.3 points per game, a 78% drop, #22 in section across those games. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Santa Rita's last 3 opponents have averaged 11.4 points per game, a #221 offense in section on the season, against 17.5 points per game, #189 for the first 7. Measured against those opponents' norms (11.4 points per game), Santa Rita held those offenses 45% below what they usually score. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 3 opponents average a rating that would rank #244 in section, well below the first 7 (#199), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, the Eagles rank #106 in section in scoring defense.
One of Santa Rita's shakiest areas lately has been its defense. Santa Rita allowed 6.1 yards per play (1,155 yards on 189 snaps) over its first 4 games (1-3), #84 in section during those games. In the 6 games since that hot start (2-4), the Eagles have allowed 9.1 yards per play (1,500 yards on 164 snaps), a 50% rise, #201 in section during that period. The schedule has a lot to do with it: Santa Rita's last 6 opponents have averaged 7.0 yards per play, a #104 offense in section on the season, against 5.4 yards per play, #176 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (7.0 yards per play), Santa Rita allowed 31% more per snap than those offenses usually gain. On the season, Santa Rita ranks #153 in section in yards per play allowed.

PPG/OPP PPG use every played game on file. YPG/PLAYS-PER-GAME columns only ever come from games with a full box score on file, which can be a smaller sample than GP -- see the coverage note below when that's the case for this team.
Averages use only games with that number on file (offense 5/10, defense 8/10, sacks/INT 2/10, sacks allowed 6/10, turnovers 8/10 games). SACKS ALW comes from the opponent's box score; TO FORCED is takeaways; TO MAR is takeaways minus giveaways, and its bottom cell is the season total. Dashes mean not on file.
