Entering this week's play, the Sun Belt and Big 12 conferences are on pace to finish with the highest average number of penalties in league games in the past five-plus seasons, according to data from Marty Couvillon of cfbstats.com.
Marty started tracking the data in 2004 and the Sun Belt has been a regular on the list, holding down five spots, including its current standing for 2009.
Marty reports that 14 Big 12 games in 2009 have had 20 or more penalties, topped by 28 penalties in the Colorado-Texas game on Oct. 10.
