*3 Star Big 10 ATS Play* The Nebraska Cornhuskers were beaten at home last year by the Northwestern Wildcats. Northwestern is team that doesn't get very much credit despite performing quite well on a weekly basis. Pat Fitzgerald gets a ton out of his team, and I think he'll have them ready to play here. Nebraska's defense isn't good at all this year, especially against the run. Northwestern's running game is one of the best in the conference. In addition, Northwestern is 13th in the nation at stopping the run, which is what Nebraska does offensively. Nebraska hasn't done anything to deserve being a touchdown favorite on the road here. Take the home underdog.
