Okay, so I got really into this whole San Antonio Brahmas football thing recently. I mean, who doesn’t love a good underdog story, right? I started digging into their stats for the 2024 UFL season, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride.
First, I had to find a decent source of info. I tried a few different websites. Some were okay, but a bit too fancy for my taste. Finally, I found one that had all the basics – passing, rushing, receiving, kicking, the whole nine yards. Perfect!
Diving into the Numbers
I started with the offensive stats. You know, just getting a feel for how the team was moving the ball. I looked at passing yards, completion percentages, and touchdowns. Then I moved on to rushing. How many yards were they gaining on the ground? Who were the key players making things happen?
- Checked out the passing yards for each quarterback.
- Compared their completion percentages.
- Noted down the number of touchdowns thrown.
After that, I got into the receiving stats. Who were the top receivers? How many catches did they have? What about their average yards per catch? It was like putting together a puzzle, each stat a different piece.
- Identified the top receivers.
- Logged their number of catches.
- Calculated their average yards per catch.
Special Teams and Defense
Of course, you can’t forget about special teams. I checked out the stats for kickoff returns, punt returns, and punting. It’s not the most glamorous part of the game, but it’s super important. Then I went deep on defense. Who’s getting those sacks and interceptions?
And you know, all this data got me thinking. These players, they’re not making millions like some of the NFL guys. I read somewhere that the average Brahmas player probably makes around $50,000 to $60,000 a year, plus some bonuses. That’s not a ton of money when you think about the risks they take on the field. Makes you appreciate their dedication even more.
Wrapping it Up
Anyway, I spent hours going through all these numbers, getting a real sense of the team’s strengths and weaknesses. It was like a fun little research project, but way more interesting than anything I did in school. I even started to feel a bit of a connection to the team, you know? Like I was somehow part of their journey.
So, yeah, that’s my story of digging into the San Antonio Brahmas’ stats. It was a blast, and I’m even more excited to watch them play now. Go Brahmas!
