Description

Dataset includes date and time, opponent, score, rushing statistics, passing statistics, turnovers, Nebraska penalties, point spread, and weather information. All games are included. Penalty data is incomplete before 1972-09-16 (Texas AM). Point spread data is unknown before the 1978 season. It is listed for approx. 89 of games from from that point forward. Weather data is taken from the DarkSky API and from Weather Underground. I've found temperature and humidity data to be fairly reliable but wind data is less so. Column Labels:
