Understanding This Team's Score
Strengths
- Road wins at Rutgers and Penn State — not afraid to travel
- Capable of dominant performances — beat Fresno State by 39 points
- Winning by an average of 15.5 points against FBS opponents — comfortable and in control
- Consistent offense putting up 32.8 points per game against FBS opponents
- 2-0 in one-score games — clutch when it matters
- 3-2 against Power Four competition — holding their own at the highest level
- Dropped 49 points on Louisiana — the offense has another gear
- Held Fresno State to just 0 points — a suffocating defensive effort
- Scored 40+ points 3 times against FBS opponents — one of the most explosive offenses around
Areas for Improvement
- Home loss to Oregon is a blemish on the résumé
- Résumé is thin — averaging 4.5/10 opponent quality across FBS wins
- Coming off a 17-point loss to Wisconsin — not a good look going forward
- Was held to just 7 points by Wisconsin — the offense can be completely shut down
