Points / game	35.6 #32	31.8 #119	NEB

When RUTG has the ball

Advantage: NEB defense

	RUTG off	NEB def	Edge
Points / game	31.2 #58	15.4 #15	NEB
Yards / play	6.03 #56	4.55 #13	NEB
PPA / play	+0.16 #63	−0.06 #12	NEB
Success rate	47% #40	34% #7	NEB

Bars show league standing (dashed mark = league middle); Offense and Defense use the average rank across the four stats below. In the tables, a highlighted value and the Edge column mark the side ranked better by at least 15% of the league; defense values are what that team allows. Yards and turnovers from ESPN box scores; PPA from CollegeFootballData (garbage time excluded). Descriptive only: the model already uses these.
