Benchmarks for team performance

Round 1 of division 1 national playoff results:
UC Berkeley Tennessee 102-3
San Diego State 32-15 Arkansas State
:
Kutztown 27-23 Bowling Green
:
BYU 48-22 Dartmouth
:
St Mary’s 52-40 Air Force
:
Cal Poly 51-27 Army:
Colorado Utah 31-30
Penn State Minnesota 52-24,

-Half the winners scored more than 50 points. Lowest winning score: 27.
-Midwest Union 0-2 in first round--BG lost to a relative minnow Kutztown, and Minnesota got blown out.
-Losing teams Minnesota, Utah, Dartmouth, and Army have paid semi-professional staffs, stadiums and every advantage a team could have.

This time next year we need to be capable of scoring more than 50 against a solid opponent or winning a close game against an equal opponent, or putting up a huge score against an inferior opponent with our b-side.
