points scored down 30.4% or 30.4 points?

You are right. It just felt that way.

Not really fair to compare 2017 offense to 2018 offense when we actually had a defense this season.

Due to the blowout losses, the 2018 defensive numbers were not as improved as I expected.
AAC Rank Team TD's FG Points PPG
10 SMU 54 15 423 35.2
11 ECU 51 11 390 35.5
12 Uconn 81 14 605 50.4

This year SOS: 68
Last year: 76
Per Sagarin
Our defense looked incredible compared to last year IMO.

And that is somewhat misleading because of who we played at home vs on the road

Really?
Our schedule looked way harder this year but schedule rank is not as high as you'd expect because TCU, Tulane, Tulsa, UConn, and Navy are trash garbage this year. Also, HBU might be the worst team in the country (their only win came against an 0-10 DII team).

in 2017 we played 9 teams in the Top 50 in Total Offense-every AAC defense was torched-3 teams had worse defense than us. This year-I counted yesterday and we played only 6 teams in the Top 50 on offense. I predicted at the start of the year we'd still finish in the 100s in Total Defense if we played 9 Top 50 offenses, which we didn't. We finished at No. 92. Navy, TCU and Arkansas St. were the teams that dropped out of the Top 50 in Total Offense. Also, playing TCU and Houston in the rain is a lot better for the defense than playing them on the road in the bright sunshine like in 2017
