Rutgers is unbeaten, including a 26-23 win at Virginia Tech as an underdog. QB Athan Kaliakmanis (7 TDs, one INT) has played great and is helped by a ground attack that averages 5.4 yards per carry anchored by RB Kyle Monangai (589 yards, 6.1 ypc). The defense is allowing 16.3 points per contest and the team is on a 10-5-1 ATS run. Nebraska has less balance on offense averaging 4.3 yards per carry and has struggled on special teams, one of the worst units in the country. Two weeks ago they stepped up against Illinois. As a 9-point home favorite, the Huskers lost 31-24 surrendering 381 yards (166 rushing). Play Rutgers.

Pro Picks
Rutgers at Nebraska
Rutgers is not a strong offensive team, scoring 14 points against Washington along with a 16-13 loss to Eastern Michigan of the MAC. They have spent the week celebrating after ending an 11-game skid last week, a blowout of Morgan State. But for the season their quarterbacks have combined for four TDs, four picks. They are a better defensive team than offensive one. Senior defensive lineman Darnell Davis recorded a career-high 10 tackles while also picking up his second sack and second forced fumble of the season last time out. Rutgers is 17-6 UNDER the total following a straight up win of more than 20 points. Nebraska is not clicking on offense under Coach Mike Riley, with QB Tanner Lee throwing five TDs, seven picks. They come off a stunning 21-17 loss at home to Northern Illinois. At least the defense is improving: Since giving up 42 points in the first half to Oregon, the Cornhuskers' defense has yielded only seven over its last six quarters. And the Cornhuskers are 9-2 UNDER the total in non-conference tilts. This one finishes UNDER the total.
