BigRedBuster Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Do you have a link to where you got that from? Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 This to me is what makes this team so intriguing and hard to predict. It's nearly a brand new squad compared to a year ago 1 Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Well and the other thing is the NU has a QB that is a far more competent passer than what they had last year. Good thing this sort of thing doesn't matter in games because it would be a long year for NU being that far down the list! Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 When you graduate your 4 year starter at QB and several of his favorite receivers and the 'starting' RB (although he may not have been significantly better than those behind him), you would expect this sort of statistical result. But, if you are expecting better production from those you are replacing, then there is plenty of reason for optimism and these numbers will not likely be indicative of the upcoming season results.

JJ Husker Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I prefer the glass is half full approach.....It's not only 26% production returning but rather 74% lack of production that is not returning. 1 Quote Link to comment

I agree to this for the most part. We lost a lot of SRs, but only 1 of them was drafted (last pick 5th round). Tanner Lee and the LB core are the two main keys for this upcoming season.
