If we're going to use statistics to figure this sort of stuff out, can we at least use some remotely advanced statistics besides averages? How many standard deviations away from the mean are these figures? What's the error involved in calculating it? Yeah sometimes refs suck, deal with it. If you need some more numbers to move around to prove a point, please consider using this text. http://www.amazon.com/How-Lie-Statistics-Darrell-Huff/dp/0393310728

Despite a bad loss (Texas) we're ranked as the 4th best one loss team. I think this is more than fair.

OK, I gotta ask. Why would Scott Frost make a great WR coach? I know coaching is in his background, but he never played the position. I don't know if he would make a "great" wr coach, but I can't say that we are doing very well in that area. In the very least he is smart, maybe he would use Ron Brown as his mentor because we rarely had drops when Coach Brown coached the WR's. That, and there is no denying Frost's connections and influences: his parents were coaches, he played for Tom Osborne, Bill Walsh, Bilotti, and Turner Gill, he may have played for Bo at Green Bay. He has been around some great coaches. I hope that this "bouncing back" doesn't mean ball bouncing off of hands like they have been. I've just been hearing he's done a really good job at Oregon (as their WR coach). I don't know where he picked up the skills.

Little surprised I haven't seen or heard more calls for getting rid of Gilmore and going after Scott Frost.

Seriously, this board is awesome. Just another way husker fans are classy.

I'm doing course prep right now and trying to find anything to do to avoid work.

The week before this, Nate Enderle was also a slider. Huskers seem to be a good team for ruining draft stock.

Snuffleaffegeous it came outa nowhere, just like Martinez finding a hole to run through...right? RIGHT?

Baker asserting himself!

I agree, but it all starts and ends with their absolutely hideous field. I will given them respect when they change their field to green. Until that, I will root against them every time. I like the blue field. Regardless of that though, these guys can play.

Yeah, they're even talking him up a ton on the radio or David's a gamer.

Also gotta love a healthy Burkhead. This game is sounding like playing NCAA on the easiest setting.

Love hearing Baker getting in on it. I'm betting he has a huge year.

Should the criterion be add up all the values and let the lowest value decide who starts. You're using an ordinal scale (ranked, but the difference between 1 and 2 isn't twice as much) so it would be silly to say the person who has no last place finishes should clearly be started. That being said the scores were Lee-11 Green-9 Tmart-9 So by your system, either Tmart or Green should start. Sorry for being a smart(synonym for a donkey here) but seems kinda arbitrary in a lot ways, but good start to a discussion.

Kalamazoo Michigan here. I'm on the map there now too.

Figured I'd stay on topic here. Been chatting a bit with folks about regularly going to http://bigdealssportsbar.com/default.aspx on Drake in Kalamazoo for Huskergames. Would be nice to have a spot with other Husker fans.

I think the idea behind what the OP was saying is that the lack of experience was the cause of those stats. Now that there's some game experience, we should see drastic improvement. You're arguing that the players don't improve essentially.
