Any team ever had more points than total offensive yards?

[Mac]

So far, Florida vs. Miami (OH) at halftime, the Gators only have 13yards of total offense but yet, 21 points which of course sparked a discussion here. Any team ever ended up with more points than yards at the end of the game? Discuss.

Is this a social experiment?

You can make it whatever you want Mike

He's not kidding. Florida have 17 yards total offense with 9:50 left in the third quarter.

We should have scheduled them as the creampuff to open the year, then :-p

This thread made me think of the 1950 Snow Bowl. Not more points than yards but scUM won without making a single first down. The Bucks had three first downs, and three points. Only 68 yards of offense altogether but almost a mile's worth of punts.

If they ever widen those goalposts we will pour more points on

Young Kicker?? What was that EXP all about? He's lucky he had it inside the pylons.

Was definitely a struggle for fla in this game. Their d stepped up big. Fla will be a force at the end of the year

This brings up a question...has any team ever won kicking all field goals when the other team at least scored one TD? j/k

Technically, yes..although I can't come up with any examples in the way that you were probably thinking of when you made the thread


1916 Cumberland vs. Georgia Tech football game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cumberland had 0 points and -82 total yards, so technically more points then yards. I'm sure there's plenty of other examples of teams having negative yardage and being shut out.

In terms of teams actually having positive point totals and less yards, Best guess would be some sort of similar blowout where the other team got a pick 6 or something, but stats can be hard to find for these older games.
