More or less confident in team after Cincinnati?

@BingoDingo - did you build the model ?

 

[Kazman5k]

I'm pretty sure ESPN's win probability for Nebraska - the one posted on their matchup page for the game - was > 50% the entire game and never dipped below like 70% on Cincy's final drive. Feels like two models by ESPN saying completely opposite things.

ESPN’s updated FPI still has Texas #1 after losing and trotting out Hellen Keller at QB so I think it’s safe to assume their models are dogshit

Here’s what I do know and like to remind myself when RS…er, tPB goes off it’s predictable deep end even after every win…

During the run in the 90’s…you know when we’re were the most dominate team in college football that won 60 games and 3 Nattys…the boards were pretty much the same ridiculous ‘yeah but’s’ and ‘Should have done X, Y, or Z’

Nebraska fans will never allow a win to be a good win. It’s just the DNA.

I guess it’s what makes us great.

• We controlled the game. Yes, their running game and QB scrambled like fuck, but we controlled the game. We took what they gave us and while we should have scored more points, we held a very good offensive team to 17 points.

Bolded one of the biggest issues I have with this week's performance. The Frost era was loaded with games where we put up tons of yards and on paper should have had tons of points, but in reality we often struggled to finish the job. Maybe that's not a concern for you, but it probably should be.

There was husker Internet boards in the 90s? I was led to believe Internet was just porn and cat vids until like 2004. (I'm a youngster)

If we can beat Michigan we are legit playoff contenders. Michigan's roster is no joke.

I’m not a naysayer, but we’re not beating Michigan.

We’re averaging less than 23 points in 5 games with Holgorsen, which includes one 44 point performance.

In fact, the 44 against Wisconsin is the only game we’ve scored more than 20 in during that stretch. All other games are exactly 20, except for Cockeye, which was the low water mark at 10.

Not that it was better before him. It’s just not getting better with him at the helm either.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we don't score a tuddy on them. Maybe a couple fg

I don’t really count last year bc that was on the fly mid-season.

I don’t disagree. I’m just saying that what we saw in terms of scoring was of a piece with last season. It would’ve been nice to see improvement.

What’s odd is that the offense has looked better since Holg took over, while somehow not scoring more points.

Red zone offense has been atrocious
