Yes, that was horrible. I think that is a symptom of our horrid O line. When then D knew were were going to pass, nothing worked. Quote Link to comment

Add in the mental "hear it comes again" stress and it is a recipe fir disaster. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 It’s amazing how all the stats people post on here don’t translate to winning. If our offense was as efficient as many of these stats suggest we would score like 35-45 a game not the 25 we do now. It’s salso amazing how one place can say we are the 25th best offense and others say 110th. Just goes to show you can twist the narrative depending on what variables they include. That’s what great about W-L. Only 1 variable. Did you succeed or not 2 Quote Link to comment

Not sure we really know how the play book was when 2AM would be smothered by defenders in about a half second. 2 Quote Link to comment

Nobody has said everything is awesome and nothing needs to change. But, some find looking at this interesting. If you don’t, that’s fine. 2 2 Quote Link to comment

I just struggle with the wildly inconsistent ratings that so many different entities have. I saw one stat that said we were like 119th in the country in points scored per yard earned. So we got yards but not many points to back it up. So I question the validity of some of these stats people throw out that totally contradict other similar things. Like our PPG is not that good so how are we good in the red zone and good at moving the ball per some sources. Quote Link to comment

Generally look for outside passing routes, , running routes to get out of bounds. Nothing too long as it eats clock (although we do seem to go YOLO a lot). Quicker developing plays etc...

It is interesting from the standpoint I question it’s accuracy or validity. If you struggle to score, lose 75% of your games. I don’t really believe some stat that tells me we are a top 25 offense. My eyes tell me we are streaky and inconsistent offense that pulls off chunk plays at times to make game stats look better. But can’t produce when it matters. Or we pad stats at the end of games when we are down by 2 scores and defenses are playing prevent. Quote Link to comment

So, some stats are put together purposely to make Huskers look good even though the site is analyzing all teams? No, the stats are looking at different things. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Yards per point would be something that is heavily influenced by defenses ability to get turnovers and special teams both of which we are not good at. 1 Quote Link to comment

Confirms my suspicion that they’ll have way better options on the table. I've been saying that all along. Others mentioned Billy Napier as OC. Some of our fans are delusional, I swear. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
