Both of these teams have storied programs with national titles, but neither has gotten their lately. Nebraska may be closer as they come in the ranked team at #22. The Huskers are an untested 3-0 on the season and will be ready for the Hurricanes here. Tommy Armstrong is a true duel threat QB as he is passing for 9.5 yards per attempt while connecting for seven TDs to just one INT, compared to 9/8 a year ago. His legs have similar numbers in rushing for 9.6 yards per attempt as well. Miami flunked their test vs. Louisville 31-13, and then Louisville lost to Virginia, so they might not be as good as expected. QB Brad Kaaya has been very erratic early and has already thrown five INTs this season. The Canes have been spread losers where they are just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games. The Huskers play big at home where they are 18-6-2 ATS when facing a team with a winning road record. The QB edge and the game go to the Huskers, so play on Nebraska.
