FILE - In this Oct. 7, 2017, file photo, Auburn quarterback Jarrett Stidham (8) looks to the sideline during the second half of an NCAA college football game against Mississippi, in Auburn, Ala. Last season scoring was down in college football, a drop of about a point and a half per game per team to 28.8, and the lowest mark since 2011 (28.3). But a deeper look into the numbers shows that defensive coordinators don't have much to celebrate. Offenses are still performing at a high level. They were, generally, just operating more slowly in 2017. And there is reason to believe this is the new normal as the allure of playing fast. (AP Photo/Thomas Graning, File)
