Washington is a shotgun, quick-game team (89% shotgun, 41% of snaps are quick throws) with a bottom-10 run game (rush offense rank 130) and leaky protection (22 sacks allowed, rank 127). Nebraska owns the nation's No. 1 third-down defense (19.3%). Make them live on 3rd & 5+, where they succeed 28% of the time on film. On offense, run it at a defense Iowa ran over for 263 yards, and finish in the red zone, where UW's defense ranks 119th. [1][2][3][4][7]

What this is
A fan's film room for Nebraska football. We chart the opponent snap by snap, tie every number to a public source, and turn it into the stuff a coordinator would want on a laminated card: tendencies by field zone and down & distance, the looks that beat them, and suggested calls.
Charted, not guessed. Down, distance, spot and result come from official play-by-play, reconciled to the box score.
Sourced. Every section cites its sources. If it isn't in a source, it isn't on the site.
Unofficial. Fan work. Not affiliated with Nebraska or the Big Ten.
