For anyone new to Numbers, Statistics and Lies, we are looking at basic stats. There is nothing “advanced” about my analysis. I give you an idea where the Huskers rank in the conference and in FBS in terms of several team metrics. I then pick out a couple of numbers that stand out, examine the statistics that go with them and decide if the numbers are lying to us or not.
As always, if you see things differently or pick out something I didn’t, put it in the comments!
Color Coded Pile of Numbers
It is way too early in the season to figure out where this team will end up, but we can see a couple of things to watch as the next few games unfold.
