I agree that DR15 has not been an all American this year. EJ is playing elite and very valuable to this team.
But DR hasn’t lost us many games either. Maybe Minnesota. I think our Run D lost us Michigan.
That’s been a pleasant change from years past, where our qbs moved the ball down the...
We sit at 6 wins in early November, something we haven't said since 2016, the last time we were positive in turnovers. Do you think that's a coincidence?
We give up 3.4 sacks per game, not 5.
3.4 sacks is not equal to a negative turnover margin. The sacks are definitely hamstringing, though...
Yes, it can be much worse. The main category being turnovers. Dylan improved greatly in that category this year and we're positive on the year, the first time 2016. (we were even in 2019)
Our YPG and PPG might increase under Lateef but so might the turnovers, and that's usually not a...
Also, I get people wanting to flip it overnight like Indiana. But I’m an SMU fan, and they didn’t flip it overnight night but for the last 12 years have just gotten better. There have been hiccups but it’s much more of a case for Nebraska to follow I think. And I think nil is pretty similar...
We’d all take 9 wins for sure. 9 wins today is more impressive than 9 wins in 2010. Pelini probably would win 7 or 8 in today’s college football.
Vandy also didn’t do it overnight. Lea was 2-10, 5-7, 2-10 before last year. If the SVC existed at Vandy he would’ve never made it to see Pavia...
I agree we are 1-6, but the line opened at 6.5 last week and then moved to 7.5. So there were a fair amount of people that covered betting Nebraska.
Same with this week, USC could win by 5.5, but there will be a lot of USC bettors that don't cover.
Best Nebraska football has been since Obama was in office! And still people want to piss and moan about the deficiencies of this team. Take the progress in stride and be happy!
Gotcha. I think generally Gerogia is on the wealthier side of the southern states.
My view is in the NIL Era, endowment size will be a good proxy for future success (excluding Ivies). It won't be a perfect predictor (still need good coaches and buy in from fans), but should be decent.
Look...
That was very frustrating game, but the data says it was pretty close.
And really we were 4 plays away from winning.
1. Hunter catches the deep ball at 10:55 in the 4th (7pts)
2. Raiola doesn't overthrow Key in the endzone at 0:37 in the first (4pts)
3. Raiola doesn't overthrow Key at 12:09 in...
