Understanding This Team's Score

Strengths
  • Solid win over Minnesota (41–13), a 5.7/10 quality opponent
  • Road win at Illinois (24–17)
  • Capable of dominant performances — beat Minnesota by 28 points
  • Winning by an average of 17.5 points against FBS opponents — comfortable and in control
  • Shut down Minnesota, holding them to 13 points
Areas for Improvement
  • Going just 2-3 at home — can't protect the home field
  • Giving up 34.5 points per game — defense needs improvement
  • Blown out by 39 points against Notre Dame — a lopsided loss that raised real questions
  • Just 2-4 against Power Four opponents — struggles against elite competition
  • Scored 36 against Wake Forest and still lost (38–36) — the defense has real problems
  • Was held to just 10 points by Notre Dame — the offense can be completely shut down
  • Allowed 52 points to UCLA — a historically bad defensive performance
