Breaking ***TPB Exclusive: Scrote Stats***

[Baron Winnebago]

Don't forget the bullshit roughing the passer on the last drive to keep it alive. 99.8% of the reason we lost.

Roughing the passer is an automatic 99 yard + automatic TD penalty so it checks out

Reflection on Loss #6: Northwestern 34 Nebraska 31 OT, 2018.

Before I take you on this joyous walk down memory lane, I'm going to show you a picture.

View attachment 12902

Coach Scrote was riding low on a 5 game losing streak, but that was going to come to an end when Barrett Pickering knocked through a field goal to give the big Red a 10 point lead with 5:41 remaining in the game. NW proceeded to drive down to kick a field goal to bring it back into a possession game and Nebraska followed up with a 3 and out running virtually no time off the clock but an Isaac Armstrong punt to the Northwestern 1 put the Huskers in prime position to close out the W. But today (or really any day) was not Coach Scrote's day. Northwestern marches 99 yards with no time outs in under 2 minutes to send the game to OT. An Adrian Martinez interception in OT put Northwestern in position to complete the improbable comeback with just and field goal and they'd do it handing Coach Scrote his 6th consecutive loss to open his tenure.

If you wanted to point to a single game that summarizes Adrian Martinez's career this is probably it. He had an interception deep in NW territory, an interception to effectively lose the game in OT, and a fumble that was scoop and scored.

Scrote Stat #24: Coach Scrote keeps setting records. 0-6 was the worst start in school history surpassing the 0-3 start from the 1945 Bugeater squad. And in the 2021 campaign Coach Scrote tied Bill Jennings 1957 squad for the most losses in a single season with 9. Now the big red effectively returns a bag of dicks in the trenches this season and Ty Robinson, you cool. So can Coach Scrote make history again with either an 0-7 start or 10 losses? Only time will tell

This game broke me as a fan. Refused to watch any more Husker games the rest of the year. Never done that before. It was nice watching football and enjoying it for a change.

I attended this abomination too. What a kick in the nuts this was.

I remember being in the Ocean Resort sports book in Atlantic City with a bunch of friends. One of them showed up late, saw Nebraska was winning, put in a live bet with great odds on Northwestern, and then antagonized me throughout the entire comeback.

Reflection on Loss 5: Wisconsin 41 Nebraska 24 2018.

I'll level with you here. I don't remember a single minute of this game. Apparently Jonathan Taylor went for 200+ yards and after a relatively promising Q1, Nebraska got boat raced. Weird guy JD Spielman had 200+ receiving and Adrian Martinez didn't throw a pick, but the Badgers rolled and handed Coach Scrote his 5th loss to open his tenure at Nebraska.

Scrote Stat #25: Stats are for nerds and Coach Scrote rejects them with all his heart. Nevertheless ESPN hires people who do some kind of Bayesian modeling to predict game outcomes in real time (I assume). So now let's realize the moments where those nerds didn't weight the prior that Coach Scrote is sacks of shit all the way the down enough and gave him a >85% chance to win a game sometime in the 4th quarter that he would go on to lose.

2018
Colorado: 90.3% W when the Puffs had 3rd and 19 with 1:18 to play.
Northwestern: 94.6% with 35 seconds to go and the Cats needing to end up in the end zone.

2019
Colorado 88.8% with 54 seconds to go and the Puffs needing a TD to tie.

2021
Michigan State: 86.8% after Sparty kicked off at 20-20 with 3:47 to play
Cockeye: 91.8% at the start of 4 with the Huskers up 12.

Collapsing worse than his alibi when him and Davison show up at his house shit house drunk at 8AM on Tuesday reeking of (insert perfume women wear here).

Jesus the odds of losing all 5 of those games must be astronomical

Reflection on Loss #4: Purdookie 42 Nebraska 28. 2018.

Another game I don't remember anything from. Apparently Ozigbo had himself a day with 17 carries for 170 yards and 2 touchdowns, but sadly Nebraska had to play from behind all day after falling behind 27-7. Nebraska pulled it back to within 14 early in the 4th, but couldn't get anything going after that to cap another embarrassing loss to Purdookie.

Scrote Stat #26: The Scrotefense is designed to put up a fuck ton of yards and a bunch of points. Usually yards are correlated with points and points are correlated with wins, but there's this perception that Coach Scrote's boys rack up yards but not points. I scrutinize that claim here by looking at Nebraska's record when they outgain an opponent.

2018: 3-3
2019: 5-3
2020: 1-2
2021: 3-3

Overall 12-11. Slightly better than a coin flip, but means coach Scrote is a 3-18 when they don't outgain an opponent.

Assuming independence, it's like .000005%. through Coach Scrote all things are possible. Well bad things anyways

Reflection on Loss 3: Michigan 56. Nebraska 10. 2010.

Michigan ran out to a 46-0 lead and only allowed 132 yards on the day. Nebraska was dominated in every single phase of the game, which was probably used as evidence for how bare old man Riley left the cabinet. Adrian Martinez passed for a whopping 22 yards and Andrew Bunch was our leading rusher. Really I have no fucking idea how this game wasn't even more lopsided all things considered.

Scrote Stat #27: in the last Scrote Stat, we documented Coach Scrote's incredible ability (or so if seems) to outgain opponents and still lose the game. Now let's benchmark that against the despicable Cockeye.

Cockeye

2018: 9-1
2019: 7-1
2020: 5-2
2021: 5-0

Overall: 26-4 when outgaining opponent

Oof

Reflection on Loss 2. Troy 24 Nebraska 19.

Nebraska lost Adrian Martinez the week prior to a knee injury because some dumb son of a bitch twisted his leg at the bottom of a pile like those drug addicts at Colorado are known for, but I'm relatively sure God killed Rashaan Salaam as retribution shortly after so who's laughing now? Anywhoozle, the Troy Trojans came to town to make a bit of cash, take an L, and get sent on their way, but not today sir. Not. Today. Nebraska outgained Troy by about 120 yards even with Andrew Bunch under center, but giving up a punt return TD in the first half put Nebraska behind the 8 ball. Despite closing the gap late in the 4th quarter the Trojans held on to win the game and took a fat ass check home with them for embarrassing Coach Scrote.

Scrote Stat #28: The name of the game on special teams is don't shit your pants such that you have poo running down your legs onto your neighbor's brand new Persian rug. At least make it to the bathroom before you dookie all over the floor where you can do a half assed job of cleaning it up and be out of the house before anyone is the wiser. Nebraska special teams under Coach Scrote have been much more the former (Jim that means the first one) than the latter (Jim that means the second one). But, did you know that in the Coach Scrote era, Nebraska has surrended 8 punt or kick return TDs? By contrast, in 3 seasons, Old Man Riley's teams gave up 2 kick/punt return touchdowns. Dookie, dookie, dookie rocking everywhere.

I will fondly look back on the times when we were arguing that we were losing because Riley left the cabinet bare rather than losing because Coach Scrote is a bottom 5 (at best) power 5 coach

That loss was blamed on Gebbia's selfishness (LOL) if I recall correctly. People were saying that we would've won if he had stayed and been able to play that game instead of Bunch.

From all accounts Gebbia had a much better handle of running the offense and practiced better than Adrian. Plus was one of the respected leaders of the team. But Coach Scrote decides to hand the reigns to his boy Martinez who hadn't played football in over a year. Don't worry about the rust or lack of experience cuz he is your boy. And Coach Scrote wasn't afraid to Ride & Die with Adrian no matter how badly he played.

I can't blame Gebbia for transferring after getting passed over. Didn't seem like he got a fair shot. And he wasn't the only returning player that felt slighted after being passed on the depth charts by Frost's recruits even though they out performed them in practice. One example is Devine Izigbo, goes from 1st String at the end of Riley's last season to being named 3rd String RB in Fall Camp behind 2 newcomers. Finally Coach Scrote realizes that his boys aren't cutting it and Izigbo gets the nod as #1 RB, and produces. Amazing what happens when you don't play favorites and actually play the best player. Novel Concept.
