Red zone, green light

Last update: September 17, 2008 - 12:03 AM

The ''red zone'' is the distance between an opponent's 20-yard line and the goal line. This year the Gophers are one of the most efficient teams in that area. They are the only team in Division I with at least 10 drives into the red zone that have scored touchdowns every time. Some top teams:

Team	Games	Drives	TDs	FG	Points	Rush TD	Pass TD	Record
Oklahoma	3	18	17	1	121	10	7	3-0
Arizona	3	17	15	2	111	8	7	2-1
