With the conclusion of the 2020 college football season (that almost didn’t happen), let’s reflect on what took place.
With a truncated eight-game regular season and a second-consecutive Famous Idaho Bowl Appearance, the Nevada Wolf Pack finished 7-2, including five straight victories to begin the season by combined 58 points.
Complementing its high-powered offense, Nevada transitioned into a capable defense, finishing seventh in the Mountain West in total defense (377.7 ypg). Nevada was also middle of the pack (no pun intended) in the conference in passing and rushing defense, along with total first downs surrendered per contest.
