All tolled, Nevada defense has:
held six of eleven opponents below their scoring offense averages.
held four of eleven opponents below their rushing offense averages.
held three of eleven opponents below their total offense averages.
held five of eleven opponents below their PER offense average.

The Nevada offense has
been above opponent defense scoring averages in four of eleven games
been above opponent defense rushing averages in seven of eleven games
been above opponent total defense averages in five of eleven games
been above opponent PER defensive averages in seven of eleven games.


Nevada has been completely dominated in one of their eleven games (UCLA).

Nevada has completely dominated two opponents (UC Davis & San Jose St).

On average they are scoring 7.1 MORE points than average and allowing 1.3 MORE points.
They are rushing for 26.9 MORE yards and allowing 68.5 MORE rushing yards.
They are gaining 80.6 MORE total yards and allowing 71.1 MORE total yards.
They are throwing for 26.1 PER points HIGHER and holding teams 10.9 PER points LOWER.

So BYU should be expect to meet or exceed their season averages on Offense and could struggle to hold Nevada's offense below their season averages.

BYU should be able to run for a ton of yards on these guys. As was stated in the podcast, only two teams allow more yards per carry than Nevada's 6.34.

Nevada gave up 300 or more yards rushing five times.
