2024 tOSU Offense Discussion

The Full List of Teams that Have Scored 50+ in the last 30 years

1995 Nebraska
2005 Texas
2008 Oklahoma
2012 Louisiana Tech
2013 Florida State
2013 Baylor

That's the whole list. Not one of those teams played in the Big Ten or the SEC (leagues with any reputation for defense).

It is a rare feat; rare to the point that one could argue it hasn't been done in the B1G in modern football history. While I would not be surprised if the 2024 silver bullets were historically good, the 2024 offense has a few too many WHAT IFs standing between them and "historic", however you define that word.
QB would have to be CJ Stroud and even then I doubt we are scoring 50. However maybe the defense is so good we wear opposing defenses out because they’re on the field so much?

that rule change is going to make it insanely hard, I’d rather just lead the country in points per possession and highest rate of first downs per possession and that’ll basically ensure we are going to be in the top 5 in scoring which will always be enough.

Could have sworn 05' SC was also on that list...?

edit: They checked in at 49.08pgg.

Less than a point off. Still, that was an absurd year.

You youngsters
I remember Oklahoma and Nebraska used to average what seemed like 75 a game 100 yrs ago...
When they played each other, they must have agreed to never let their defenses go onto the field
Scoreboards looked like pinball machine action
