This is just Nebraska's second road game. They're 8-17 straight-up in their last 25 road contests. Michigan State plays its Big Ten Conference home opener after impressive wins over No. 12 North Carolina (94-91) as a +5 underdog and at Minnesota (90-72). The offense averages 81.6 points and is No. 3 in the country in fast break points per game (20.78 ppg) plus No. 8 in bench points (38.78 per game). The Spartans are on a 14-10 ATS run. They've won 30 of their last 36 at the Breslin Center, so back home court. Play Michigan State.
