Your 2024 Nebraska Cornhuskers

The B1G obviously hates us and the refs conspire against us.

As many stated in the X thread on that post.  This is skewed heavily by the 7 DPI calls in the Purdue game. (which were all legit)

So you're arguing that the number of calls we get is skewed, because we got a bunch of correct calls in a short period? Makes sense.  Stats are stats, we got more DPI calls than others, who cares if they bunched together?

This is just another stupid graph that doesn’t mean anything. Not sure if it’s one guy doing these graphs, or it’s a collection from random bored people. What is its point? Is it just a conversation starter like abstract art- which is ugly and stupid 

too me it says nothing positive about our offense. We didn’t score many points and now I’m learning that the points we did score were largely due to being aided by the officials. Do the refs like us after all (and maybe we should stop all the ref whining)?  Are Raiola’s passing numbers inflated?  Did we have one WR that was consistently getting mauled? Or one that is good at looking like he’s getting mauled?  Maybe they aren’t so bad after all. 
 

I might remember Rhule saying that getting DPIs was one of the offensive strategies. But I wouldn’t trust my memory. It’s subject to suggestion.

Yes I don't remember exactly he phrased it but he has talked about how they want DR and the wide receivers to take chances, and there's sort of an unspoken rule or hope that you'll put yourself in a position to draw DPI as a fallback. The first time I remember it coming up was I think DR's first INT of the season (or one of his early ones) because Rhule said after the game it's a throw he wants DR to make every time, that one just didn't work out in their favor (I think it was one of those plays where the WR went up for it and got it ripped out of their hands, so it should've been a catch but became a turnover).

Naturally, this is something a lot of offenses try to do, so it isn't unique but it is what separates good passing offenses from elite ones.

When rules are overwhelmingly in favor of the QB and Offense, it's silly not to take advantage of them.

Our line sucks and Raiola is a terrible coach.

Really wish people would admit they know nothing about offensive line play when they complain about it every game. Raiola's lines have gotten better every single year. I was skeptical after year one, but I'm comfortable with the results so far. Our biggest offensive issues are no with the line and hopefully they stay that way this year.
