I believe it was more of the team that was a dog with a better running game average rather than actual amount of times they ran the ball. Maybe coupled with the their opponent giving up a higher average....something like this.

It looks like in 4 of the first 5 games this year rushing defense was a common denominator or primary factor in the covers. The ability to run or stop the run seems to be a must. Also, starting to look like last year already with 4 of the 5 dogs not only covering, but winning SU.

(Net Rushing Yardage)*15% + (Net Passing Yardage)*10% - then adjusted for schedule strength, is not a bad indicator of the final margin, only problem is they don't put yardage on scoreboard.

It does overstate things for the predominately rushing teams like Army, Navy, etc. but for the rest of the teams it can be fairly accurate at times.
