Hoiberg Offense

At its core, Hoiberg's offense isn't all that different from what Scott Frost is running over at Memorial Stadium — push the tempo, spread the defense across the playing surface, distribute the ball to attack favorable one-on-one matchups, and be unafraid to take deep shots on a regular basis.

Over his final three seasons at Iowa State (2012-13 to 2014-15), the Cyclones ranked third, fifth and 14th nationally in points per game. Those three teams combined to score fewer than 70 points just eight times in 105 games.

They averaged 79.4, 83 and 77.8 points per game in those three seasons.

If it seems like it's been awhile since Nebraska has come close to those numbers, that's because it has.

The Huskers haven't averaged 80 points per game in nearly a quarter-century, doing it last in 1995-96. NU hasn't averaged more than 72.9 per game since, and that came in 1996-97.
