Do you anticipate adding stats on Offense and Defense like last year??

Brian Rosener's response:
Hopefully.
Why is it SEMO Conference North, Central, and South? Shouldn't it be SEMO Conference Big, Medium, and Little?

Brian Rosener's response:
It use to be that way. The conference was split into the Big Eight and Little Six. Small, Medium and Large sound like drink orders.
The same reason the MAFC uses Red (large), White (medium) and Blue (small). The small schools don't like to be called small, feeling it's inferior, and the medium-sized schools don't like it because it's like they're not big enough. Weird, but that's the feeling I've been told.

Any defensive stats ?????

Brian Rosener's response:
Not this week. Not all the coaches sent me stats for defense and I'm missing a few teams on offense as well. It's not a complete list, but a start.
