Kansas Jayhawks: 3 quick thoughts on the Nevada football team

1. Nevada is one of, if not the worst, FBS teams in the country

Simply put, you probably won’t find a worse team than Nevada in the FBS division this year.

They rank dead last in SRS (Simple Rating System), which grades teams on SOS (Strength of Schedule) and point differential. That seems like a suitable placement considering how they’ve performed thus far.

Through the first two games, Nevada has been outscored 99-20. That’s a point differential of -79. A blowout loss to USC isn’t out of the ordinary for a Mountain West team, but losing by 27 points to an FCS school that isn’t even top 10 in their own division is pretty embarrassing. It’s even more embarrassing when you take into account the game was played on their turf.

When I look at the Nevada roster, there’s not a single position group that has half as much talent as the Jayhawks. I’m getting flashbacks as a Kansas football fan of some of the awful 2010s KU teams when looking at Wolf Pack film.
