Nebraska at Michigan State

This is a conference game involving a pair of teams off to strong starts. Nebraska showcased its defense the last game, holding Boston College scoreless during a 5:56 minute stretch that put the game away, 71-62, but the offense is streaky as the Huskers went 6:03 during one second half stretch without a point, missing seven straight shots and turning the ball over three times before turning it around. That won't cut it against this powerhouse Michigan State defense. Michigan State beat a pair of Top-10 teams by 18 points in the last week, No. 9 North Carolina (63-45) and No. 5 Notre Dame (81-63). Over the last four games, MSU is allowing only 54.0 points per game with opponents shooting 34.0 percent from the floor. Overall, the Spartans are limiting opponents to 35.1 percent shooting from the field, ranking No. 4 nationally in field goal percentage defense. With conference play opening here, look for a power defensive game from both teams. Play the UNDER in this one.
