Result:
LOSS

Kansas State is a dismal 1-8 on the road and against top caliber teams they are 1-4 on the road against top 100 teams as they come to Nebraska to face them in a game with a low line. Let's face it, Nebraska is not the public favorite and Kansas State is a public team in some respects and hence that is why this line is so low. However, Nebraska is a top 100 team and this team did lose by just a point to both Texas and Oklahoma, which explains why the line is set so laow heading into Nebraska. Furthermore, this team lost on the road to Missouri and TT by a combined 7 points with sandwiching their lone win against Colorado and Iowa State at home. The home team spots a 14-4 record and is facing a team that 1-8 SU on the road. Given that Nebraska is 2-0 against top 100-150 teams and that Kansas State has struggled, I'll go with Nebraska in a close game. Nebraska is a very underrated and dangerous team. This is the same team that went on the road to beat Oklahoma State as double digit dogs. Keep in mind that this Nebraska team faced Kansas State earlier this year and won by 15 on the road. Botom line is that this team is 3-1 against top 50 teams at home, yet they are just 1-3 against 51-100 teams. However, Kansas State plays like a PR 129 team on the road at 1-8 road record and Nebraska is 2-0 against such teams and the 3 losses to 50-100 ranked teams at home came earlier this year w/that one pitfall to TTech. However, this team rebounded nicely with a win against a solid Colorodo team. Another reason to like Nebraska is the fact that they come off a similar road loss like they did against Texas where they responded in beating Iowa State and losing to TTech in which they responded to beat Colorodo - both teams which are in the top 80. Two stars on the Huskers.
