Nebraska at Michigan

Michigan is undefeated, and they host a Nebraska squad that is just 1-3 on the road this season. A win tonight would match the best start ever for the Wolverines at 16-0 (something they did back in 1985). The hype is high and so is the line. Michigan will undoubtedly win this game, but the problem for the spread is that the Wolverines have two huge games on deck: at Ohio State and at Minnesota. Those two conference games vs. nationally ranked teams will certainly be in their minds and a look-ahead is quite likely here. The Cornhuskers struggle to score, but they can play defense, averaging 60.5 points allowed on the season and 58.5 so far in conference games. Michigan has shown a propensity to let down as they are just 2-6 ATS in their last eight games after scoring 90+ points, and are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games vs. teams that own a losing road record. Take the points here.
