After a third consecutive lopsided loss, Florida State's statistics are about as ugly as you would imagine they are.

The Seminoles (4-6, 2-6 in ACC) fell behind 17-0 at No. 3 Notre Dame (10-0) on the way to a 42-13 loss Saturday night.

The offense remains among the worst nationally in many major categories. The defense has fallen off in a big way.

Exactly how bad are the numbers with two weeks left in the regular season?

Offense (Rank out of 130 FBS teams)

Points per game vs. FBS opponents: 21.2 (110)

Yards per play vs. FBS opponents: 4.97 (112)

Yards per rush vs. FBS opponents: 2.32 (129)

Yards per pass attempt vs. FBS opponents: 7.2 (67)

First downs per game vs. FBS opponents: 16.3 (122)

Third down conversion percentage vs. FBS opponents: 30.77 (124)

Redzone conversion percentage vs. FBS opponents: 69.57 (127)

Redzone touchdown percentage vs. FBS opponents: 56.52 (93)

Plays gaining 10-plus yards vs. FBS opponents: 120 (80)

Time of possession vs. FBS opponents: 27:26 (116)

Analysis: FSU actually showed slight progress in a few offensive categories Saturday, but the body of work will be far too much to overcome and bury FSU near the bottom of all FBS teams.

It was just the second time this season FSU ran for 100-plus yards against a Power-Five opponent, but the Seminoles still have the second-worst yards per carry this season.

Of the 11 offensive categories measured in this story each week, FSU is in the bottom 20 of eight of them and the bottom 10 of four.

Defense

Points per game allowed vs. FBS opponents: 32.2 (89)

Yards per play allowed vs. FBS opponents: 4.95 (25)

Yards per rush allowed vs. FBS opponents: 3.43 (22)

Yards per pass attempt allowed vs. FBS opponents: 6.7 (38)

First downs per game allowed vs. FBS opponents: 21.7 (76)

Third down conversion percentage allowed vs. FBS opponents: 37.91 percent (49)

Sacks per game vs. FBS opponents: 2.78 (25)

Plays gaining 10-plus yards allowed vs. FBS opponents: 127 (55)

Analysis: Three weeks ago, FSU was averaging four sacks per game and holding opponents to 2.6 yards per carry, both third among FBS programs.

The last three weeks have brought those statistics crashing down. FSU hasn't recorded any sacks over the last three weeks and has allowed 5.01 yards per carry over that same time span as the defense has regressed to the norm.

Factoring in the Samford game, FSU has allowed 31.6 points per game this season. As it stands, that would be the most allowed in a season in program history.

Special Teams

Field goal percentage: 61.5 (110)

Yards per punt: 42.07 (51)

Yards per punt return: 12.74 (27)

Yards per kickoff return: 19.43 (81)

Analysis: For the second straight week, Ricky Aguayo wasn't called upon to attempt a field goal and D.J. Matthews didn't have any punt returns.

FSU's kick return unit showed improvement, averaging 21 yards per return and utliizing the new fair catch rule on occasion as well.

Miscellaneous

Turnover margin vs. FBS opponents: -12 (129)

Penalties per game: 9.3 (129)

Analysis: The Seminoles did better to avoid penalties against ND, committing just five for 35 yards, but are still committing the most per game among all Power-Five teams.

FSU forced two or more turnovers for just the fourth time this season, but also committed two as it failed to improve its margin.
