2011 - 512 YPG on O and almost 5 TDs per game. D gave up 376 YPG and a little over 2 TDs per game. Also had Landry Jones.
2012 - pretty much same on O in YPG and TDs per game. D gave up 400 YPG and almost 3 TDs per game. Also had Landry Jones
2013 - O comes down to only 423 YPG and 3.3 TDs per game avg. D gives up 350 YPG and about 3 TDs per game. Bell gets about 2/3 of the snaps and Knight the other 1/3. Heupel's O runs up 45 on 'Bama's D in a win in the Sugar Bowl
2014 - O goes up to 464 YPG and 4.5 TD avg. per game. This is statistically close to Heupel's best year, but no Landry Jones. Primarily all snaps go to Trevor Knight. The D gives up almost 400 YPG and an avg. of 3 TDs per game. In their losses, they give up 37, 31, 48, 38, and 40. The O scores 33, 30, 14, 35, and 6. The Bowl game was the killer, but how motivated were they after losing a heartbreaker at home to OK Lite in the final game? Heupel has his worst QB and still puts up offensive #s close to the 2 years he had his best QB, Jones. Stoopid's brother's D was the reason he was let go.
At Utah St, his lone year:
370 YPG and over 3 TDs avg. Kent Myers had a 151 QB rating with 61% CP, 16 TDs and 3 picks. Keeton was not nearly as good, but with a mobile, good passing QB (Drew Lock), Heupel's QB and O was very efficient.
Pretty clear to me the guy knows how to coach QBs and coordinate an O.
