As good as the 2011 Hokie football offense was, they struggled to score in the red zone. That phrase "struggled to score in the red zone" has been thrown around a lot, and we know it's true because the Hokies ranked #103 in the nation (out of 120 teams) in the NCAA's "Red Zone Offense" statistic.
But what does it mean, and how do the 2011 Hokies compare to previous VT teams in the Beamer Bowl Era? And when we say that 2011 offense was "good," what do we mean by that?
