The worse game we've had this season was against Florida Atlantic where the team converted 50% (6 of 12.) Against WVU it was 9 for 16 (56%) and against Southern Miss it was 7 of 11 (64%.)
It's the best three game start since 2008. In each of this six seasons we've had one game that was horrid: Tulane in 2008 at 27%, Kent State at 20% in 2011, and 30% against Michigan in 2012 are a few examples. Each season had at least one game under 50%.
With the debate ongoing about what Sims can do when he needs to "step up" here's something you may have missed.
He was 2 for 2 against Southern Miss, both for first downs. Here's a kicker, likely a shocker, to his third down conversion rate. On the season he's 10 for 11.
90.9%.
