In the game itself tonight, the line is just about where my ratings say it should be. So, in the game , I will cheer for one of my favorite coaches of all time, Bill Snyder, hoping he can parlay the home field advantage his team holds tonight into an upset of the Huskers. It won't be easy.
What I do like in this contest is the under. Nebraska starts a freshman in QB Martinez tonight at one of the most hostile venues in college football. The Huskers will probably run the ball. It's the Nebraska passing offense that will keep this score down. I just don't see a freshman passing the ball effectively against one of the traditionally tough passing defenses that KSU usually presents.
KSU also has a QB in Coffman that has had almost no success passing the ball this year, and I doubt Coffman will suddenly find an offensive passing rhythm tonight against a very tough Nebraska pass "D." The Wildcats have an AA candidate in RB Daniel Thomas. He's good, but, not good enough to overcome the fact his team will have great difficulty passing the ball. If UCF held Thomas to 75 yards rushing, I believe Nebraska will have some success against Thomas as well. KSU will not present enough of a threat passing to open up many holes for Thomas.
THE UNDER IN A TWO STAR PLAY IN THE NEBRASKA/KSU CONTEST.
No recommendation on the game, but, I do have a slight lean to the better balanced offense of Nebraska.
