Florida Under Urban Meyer

Urban Meyer resigned as head football coach from the University of Florida yesterday, and Florida is in the process of selecting a new head football coach. So that got me to wondering how productive has Florida's football team been over the last three years (years that I data).

Given that the production model ranks in the University of Florida being the second best team in the nation in terms of productivity in 2008 and being the most productive team in the nation in 2009, Florida has had an off year as compared to the previous two seasons in terms of where they rank out of the 120 NCAA FBS schools in the nation. Still, finishing in the top 25% of the nation is nothing to be looked down upon.

Season Offense Defense Total
2008 3 5 1
2009 3 3 1
2010 65 11 33
