Under The Hood: Nebraska vs. Kansas State Statistical Comparison
Take yourself back to August. You'd been reading the sticky-sweet gooeyness that is offseason Husker football coverage for several months, and the 2009 team had yet to play a game. You were sure Nebraska would win the Big 12 North. Maybe you thought the team was capable of more than that, maybe...
Under the Hood: Nebraska Cornhuskers vs. Kansas Jayhawks Statistical Comparison: Embrace the Chaos
In some ways, these are useless articles at this point in the season. We know that Nebraska's offense is a mess. Dirk Chatelain's article points that out in ways that resemble being murdered with a blunt instrument. We know that Nebraska's defense is outstanding..... well... you and I know that....
Under the Hood: Nebraska vs Oklahoma Statistical Comparison
What's your perception about Oklahoma? Juggernaut? Wounded and vulnerable? Or does it matter? Husker fans would have put the Sooners in 'juggernaut' category before this season began, writing this game off as a loss. That perception probably hasn't changed much due to our laggard offense, even...
Under the Hood: Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Baylor Bears Statistical Comparison
First Iowa State, now Baylor. When you see them listed on the schedule, as a Husker fan you don't think twice about marking them down as easy wins. Last week's loss to Iowa State should have made it clear - there are no easy wins this season. Not with an offense that's sputtering as badly as the...
Under the Hood: Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Iowa State Cyclones Statistical Match Ups
I would guess that if you polled Husker fans, 99% would say that the upcoming game is a gimme. That's kind of to be expected when you're playing your 99th game against an opponent and your all-time record against them stands at 83-14-2. Gimme status is emphasized when you're playing at home where...
Under The Hood: Statistical Comparison for Nebraska vs. Texas Tech
We're nearly midway through the 2009 season and there is still so much we don't know about a lot of teams. You'd like to think we know a lot about Nebraska, but other than our defense being impressive, I'm not sure you could say that much that's definitive. The offense has done well against...
Under The Hood: A Light Statistical Comparison for Nebraska vs Missouri
I turned my Macbook Pro into Apple today for repair. I hate it when I do that, it's like.... well.... it's like missing an appendage to be honest. You have to make due with what you got until you get through it. So... if formatting looks a little weird it's because I'm missing my regular tool set...
Gator Bowl: Nebraska vs Clemson - Clemson's Pass Defensive Stats Skewed By Lousy Competition
Let's face it, Husker fans know next to nothing about Clemson, other than they're orange, they play in the ACC, and they beat us in 1982 to win their only national title. It's hard to get a handle on a team we're playing only the second time in school history, but in the next couple days I'm going...
Under the Hood: Hawaii at OSU
Yes, we're two games into the season, and yes, the sample size is small, but here we go with a a statistical analysis of Saturday's game: (1-1) (0-2) @ Florida (L, 56-10) @ Stanford (L, 36-28) vs. Weber St. (W, 36-17) @ Penn State (L, 45-14) Hawaii Margin of...
