Opponent Average Starting Field Position on Next Possession

Based on all offensive possessions played in 2007-2010 FBS vs FBS games that were immediately followed by an opponent offensive possession (excluding overtime). Starting field position (SFP) represents yardage from end zone. The opponent's average starting field position on the next possession (NP) is also represented in terms of yards from end zone.

Field Goal Success by Field Position

Based on all field goals attempted in 2007-2010 FBS vs FBS games. Field position (FP) represents the line of scrimmage of each field goal attempt (the actual distance of the field goal attempt is equal to the line of scrimmage plus 17 yards). The national success rate from each line of scrimmage (Pct) is also provided.

Field Position Following a Punt

Based on all offensive possessions that followed opponent punts in 2007-2010 FBS vs FBS games. Punt Line (PL) represents the line of scrimmage (measured in yards from goal line) at the conclusion of the opponent's drive. Field Position (FP) represents the average starting field position following the punt (also measured in yards from goal line).
