It's why I prefer points per red zone trip over red zone percentage.  The Spartans' 90% looks fine, 4th best in the Big Ten.  But they've only scored touchdowns on 50% of those, only Purdue is worse.  It comes out to 4.7 points per trip.  
Where do you go for that stat? 
And which stat houses do you visit in general?
(Please and thanks)

I'm unaware of any site that compiles points per trip, but it's east enough to just get the raw number (without rank) like I have above.  Big Ten's stie has the straight forward red zone stats.  Then I generally use Football Outsiders and Team Rankings for the remaining stat.  Total QBR is an ESPN only stat.

Yeah, you persuaded me RZpts is superior to RZ%, and I wanted to easily scan its national ranks. Bummer.
When baseball finally dies, can CFB pretty please have its statisticians? Or are they aging too? I have no interest in the sport, but damn if I'm not jealous of all the columns in its spreadsheets. Treasure trove stuff for a fanatic.

Purdue is not keeping it close so far with BC.

I made an effort on the SEC board to do a kind of quasi-ELA impression, not nearly as well as he does of course, but my scores turned out to be pretty good, missed UK-MSU.

These picks are not good.  Hopefully the analysis compensates even though I reach bad conclusions
