I love all of the responses. I will admit, there are a few of those numbers that I waffled on but ultimately went with a higher number to see how much kool-aid was being drank around here.

My cup runneth over

Half way through the season

1. Will any RB carry the ball 20+ times in any single game? The last time Frost had a player rush 20+ times in a game was Royce Freeman in 2015. The closest a UCF player got to 20 carries was Milton with 19 carries in 2016.
Ozigbo just had 22 carries vs Northwestern. He is the only one so far.

2. Will a TE break the single season reception record for TEs at Nebraska? Mike McNeill holds the record at 32. UCF's leading TE caught 32 passes last year.
Jack Stoll is the leader with only 10 catches. Certainly not on pace to get to 32 and the use of the TE has been a disappointment.

3. Will a WR break the single season reception record at Nebraska? Westerkamp has the record at 65. Morgan had 61 last year. Frost had 1 guy have more than 65 catches at Oregon in 2014.
Stanley Morgan is on pace for 54 catches but JD Speilman is on pace for 80 catches.

4. Over/under: Nebraska points per game 31.9
23.3 PPG so far

5. Over/Under: Sacks by Nebraska - 24.5
On pace for 30 sacks

6. Over/under: Nebraska turnover margin - +5.5

-7 so far, YUCK

7. Over/under: Nebraska INTs thrown - 11.5
Frost has not had a team throw more than 9 INTs in a season
On pace for 14 INTs

8. Who will lead the team in tackles?

BIG FAT ZERO and nothing even close

4. Over/under: Nebraska points per game 31.9
23.3 PPG so far

This is very disappointing and a major contributor to the record so far. Lots of yardage resulting in very few points.



5. Over/Under: Sacks by Nebraska - 24.5
On pace for 30 sacks

This surprises me as it doesn't feel like it. Especially after that NW game where they passed the ball 87 times and we had only two sacks.

yea, the pace for sacks is slowing down. 1, 1, 1, 2 since getting to Big10 play. If i were guessing we'll get 2, 5, 0, 2, 2, 1, the rest of the way. I guess that still hits the over and would be 26 on the season. Bethune certainly helps matters, but looking at the only FBS opponent they played (FAU) they only gave up 1 sack in that game, so 5 might be overestimating.

I don’t know that there was a lot of improvement based solely on that. Obviously PPG went way up. TO margin got significantly better. Otherwise all the rest stayed basically the same as far as the leaders at the half way mark. Sacks ended below the mid season pace. INTs got better compared to the pace.

But obviously just watching the games there was significant improvement and a lot to build on for next year.

Stanley Morgan had 70 receptions for 1004 yards
Spielman had 66 for 818

The next closest wide receiver was Kade Warner with 17 and only 95 yards


Replacing Morgan's production next year is gonna be huge

I was the only one to pick Mo Barry to lead the team in tackles.

Myself and @Tomhusker were the only one's to pick Maurice Washington as RB to lead the team in receptions.

I wiffed on kickoff/punt returns. Special teams needs a lot of work in the off-season.
