Most models out there have this around 54-56 total points scored. Penn State perhaps showed a bit of a blueprint to slow that high-powered Ohio State offense down -- we hit on the Under -- and that was in Columbus. This is the Huskers' game of the year at home and they are solid defensively. QB Adrian Martinez can keep some drives going with his feet and chew clock. I don't think more than 60 points will be scored.
How do you bet a Nebraska game? It's simple. All you have to do is figure out if Nebraska is going to win or loss. You see, Nebraska's three wins this year have come by an average of 39.7 points per game, with the smallest margin of victory being 25 points. Its seven losses have come by an average of 5.5 points, with all of them being one-score losses. So, I don't think Nebraska is going to beat Ohio State, which means it's going to lose by one score, and the spread is 14.5 points, which is two scores. See how simple this is?
Nebraska has played up to its competition all season. One would even begin to believe that the Cornhuskers are so close to turning it around. But the fact remains, they just don't find ways to win. Ohio State's balance will be the key, and with the way true freshman RB TreVeyon Henderson is playing, expect the Buckeyes to cruise to an easy cover in the second half.
