From the college statistics table in Davenport’s Wikipedia article (Marcus Davenport, CC BY-SA), season by season as the article gives them, bowls included where it counts them. Our own records come from box scores, which start in 2004 (tackles in 2016, kickoff returns in 2009).
Defense before 2016
| Season | G | Solo | Ast | Tkl |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014 | 11 of 12 | 3 | 7 | 10 |
| 2015 | 11 of 12 | 21 | 19 | 40 |
Our box scores carry tackles, tackles for loss and sacks from 2016 only, so these come from other sources: ESPN play-by-play participants, via SportsDataverse: tackles only, counted in the games whose play-by-play names tacklers (G: those games, of his team’s), so part of the season, not its total. A dash: the source has no number for it.
On the roster
As each season’s roster listed the player (CollegeFootballData). Classes before the latest listing are counted back from it; “Yr 1” is the year on file where that count can’t place a season he played (a redshirt, transfer or 2020 year); height and weight as last listed.
