Nevada has a particular pistol offense that isn't what Mizzou faces in the Big 12. That was an advantage to Nevada running the ball against them.
Also, teams have loaded up against the run, such as ULL, against Nebraska and allowed Lee to torch them through the air. When you have a guy throwing 85% completions, you keep letting him toss the rock. And you can reference the VaTech game, but he had two injured thumbs in that game and clearly wasn't himself the 2nd half.
bro,
I hate to say it but you're really digging deep on this one. I could say the same about Mizzou's offense. Nebraska hasn't seen an offense like Mizzou's until today. ULL surely doesn't have this type of offense that Pinkel runs. What about Ark St.? Do they have Mizzou type offense?
CSU & ND was able to hold Nevada to 150 & 175 yds rushing. Don't say Nevada's offense is not predictable. That's why there is game footage that you watch before you actually play the game. I'm sure Mizzou is doing the same for Huskers vice versa.
Oh yeah & one more thing. Guess where Gabbert & Zac Lee are ranked in Big 12???
1. Blaine Gabbert, Missouri - % comp = 66.41 Int = 0 TD = 11
3. Zac Lee, Nebraska - % comp = 64.76 Int = 3 TD = 7

So please don't say someone completes 85% of their passes if it's not true. I don't care if he passed for 85% against ULL, that's apples & oranges. What was his pass percentage against VaTech?? Then you'll have credibility.
