[QUOTE="ILLHangOut, post: 1482844, member: 176496"] Looking at other BigTen box scores it seems like teams usually run 50 - 70 plays. The first 9 drives Nebraska had: 53 plays 199 yards 3.7 yards per play 14 points 2 TOs That’s a complete game for a some big ten teams. Expanding it to the first 13 drives: 66 plays 373 yards 5.6 yards per play 21 points 4 TOs The next 4 drives were 275 yards, 3 TDs, and a missed FG from the goal line which could’ve easily been another TD. The numbers don’t lie, they ran out of gas. The defense played well given a normal workload. This team isn’t deep enough to defend 100 plays. The offense lost this game, the QB in particular.
