Understanding This Team's Score

Strengths
  • 3 road wins — proven ability to win in hostile environments
  • Shut down UTEP, holding them to 11 points
Areas for Improvement
  • Going just 1-2 at home — can't protect the home field
  • Struggling to score — averaging only 19.0 points per game
  • Dropped a game against Nevada (28–13), a 4.5/10 opponent they should have beaten
  • Wins are coming against weak competition — average FBS opponent quality of just 3.9/10
  • FCS win is padding a thin résumé — quality FBS wins are still missing
  • Has yet to beat an FBS opponent rated above 4.5/10 — the schedule has been kind
  • Coming off a 15-point loss to Nevada — not a good look going forward
  • Was held to just 10 points by Fresno State — the offense can be completely shut down
  • Gave up 42 points to USC — the defense has been torched at least once
