Nebraska ESPN FPI Analytics for 2023

[Kaladin]

After week one:

1. We are ranked 51st overall in the FPI rankings. We went up 2 spots.

2. Overall efficiencies (offense, defense, special teams) rank is 38th.

3. Offensive efficiency is 77th.

4. Defensive efficiency is 25th.

5. Special teams efficiency is 21st.

Colorado is ranked:

1. 71st overall in the FPI rankings. Went up 31 spots.

2. Overall efficiencies rank is 31st.

3. Offensive efficiency is 14th.

4. Defensive efficiency is 73rd.

5. Special teams efficiency is 91st.

Not a lot to gleam from these analytics after just one week, it just shows what we already know. Nebraska is good on defense and special teams but sucks on offense. Colorado is the opposite. Offense seems to trump defense in football these days, so I get why people think Colorado will win.

If I learned anything from last year, I learned that predictive stats, boxscores, and coulda, shoulda, woulda's don't mean fucking shit when we are talking bout the Huskers. I seen a hunnerd charts saying we should win, a hunnerd charts explaining why we shouldn't have lost, and none of it put a W in the right column at the end of the season. This team last year defied odds and made a fool out of stats, and after MN, I don't expect that to change.

Jeff Sims is the only guy in his cut section that isn’t a backup (Brown, Barnes) or benched (Wells)

I don’t expect Haarberg or Purdy to outplay him

Anyone got 2024 portal QB targets or a plan to contract the program?
