All of this is where college football suffers from lack of detailed statistics.
Maybe sites like PFF are trying to adhere their NFL stuff onto college, but you cant really do that.
NFL teams are very close in terms of quality, say 40-60 on a scale from 0-100. College football teams are more like 1-99 on that scale. And related to that, NFL schedules are much more even, my an order of magnitude when compared to college.
Think about Dre Bly. Dude shows up as a FR, nabs 11 INTs. Everybody's All-American. No Thorpe Award from the simpleton voters, because they need at least a year to digest anything. Only gets 9 INTs the rest of his career. I say 'only' because people seem to tend to take their initial exposure to someone and set that as the median. So Bly looks like he got worse, due to his INTs decreasing when in all likelihood, they threw his way less.
% of passes faced or defended would be a useful stat to have widely available. For a Karlaftis or Vince Wilfork, number of blockers per snap would be useful. Number of sacks or TFL while unblocked would be interesting to know, too.
Anyway, I'm not going to fault PFF for trying, but at the same time, it's silly to cite it.
