As an underdog TY, Nebraska is 2-0 ATS. However in both games their “D” did everything under the sun and still lost to Virginia Tech 16-15 and eked by Oklahoma 10-3. Along with the loss to VT, Nebraska lost to Iowa 9-7 and was spanked by Texas Tech 31-10. Outside of blowout wins over Florida Atlantic, Arkansas State, and UL Laffayette, Nebraska is posting just 18.3 PPG. Now they have to face a ferocios Texas offense that is averaging 43.0 PPG. Heisman candidate QB Colt McCoy has won more games (44) than any other QB in NCAA history. His 71.8% completion rate on 27 TD’s and 3328 YP is outstanding. He has a strong ground game with RB’s Newton and Johnson (808 YR combined). The running game will keep the Nebraska defense careful and allow McCoy to connect with one the nations best receivers in Jordan Shipley (99 rec, 1292 yards, and 11 TD’s). Everybody is talking about how good the Cornhusker’s defense is. They are ranked 11th in the nation in total “D”. But to many of the publics surprise, the Longhorn’s stop unit is ranked #5 overall, #1 vs. the run, and #3 in sacks. The swarming “D” of Texas will get to Nebraska QB Zac Lee and force him to make mistakes. The Cornhusker’s are 1-4 ATS their L5 games played on fieldturf, 2-5 ATS their L7 conference games, and 2-5 ATS their L7 overall. The Longhorn’s are 4-0-1 ATS their L5 on fieldturf, 4-1-1 ATS their L6 conference games, and 7-2-1 ATS their L10 neutral site games. Texas blows ‘em up. Thank you.
