Advantage: IU offense

	IU off	WKU def	Edge
Points / game	53.5 #7	59.5 #138	IU

PPA / play	+0.65 #2	+0.79 #138	IU
Success rate	56% #11	60% #138	IU

Bars show league standing (dashed mark = league middle); Offense and Defense use the average rank across the four stats below. In the tables, a highlighted value and the Edge column mark the side ranked better by at least 15% of the league; defense values are what that team allows. Yards and turnovers from ESPN box scores; PPA from CollegeFootballData (garbage time excluded). Descriptive only: the model already uses these.
