Minnesota knew they were going to miss David Cobb's 1,629 yards rushing from last season, but returning QB Mitch Leidner, and a year of experience should leave them in a good position. The problem is without Cobb in the backfield, Leidner's passing numbers have taken a tumble, going from 7.6 yards per attempt in 2014 to 5.9 yards per attempt this season. The result has been some tough luck offensive games. Nebraska is just 2-4 and off to one of their worst seasons in a long time. Nebraska's two wins were vs. South Alabama and Southern Mississippi, not exactly top-tier teams. The Nebraska defense, however, has a history of coming to life once we get into October, where they have played 25-10 to the UNDER in their last 35, and have a struggling offense in Minnesota to find themselves. Back the UNDER in this one.
