Is that you Mark Lawrence?

Just kidding.

No offense, but some of those "stats" are pretty meaningless.

Take Taylor Martinez' record before October. 12-1.

First of all, Nebraska has played 2 road games in the last three years before October and lost one of them (UCLA).

The other was against a horrific Washington team.

Some of the teams Nebraska has played prior to October:

Idaho
South Dakota State
Arkansas State
Idaho State
Chattanooga
Western Kentucky
Southern Miss (Finished 0-12)
Wyoming
Fresno State

Not exactly murderer's row, right?
