Purdue at Nebraska

Purdue hasn't had a 10-win season since the 1970s, and have won just six games the past three years. They are 3-3 on the season, but let's not forget that this team is now 3-24 SU in their last 27 conference games, and simply have not been competitive. They have averaged losing by 18.6 points per game. They are going to have a tough time vs. an upstart Nebraska team that is 6-0 for the first time in forever. The significance here is Purdue, since the start of the 2013 season, is being outscored by conference opponents by 33.3 ppg if that opponent is .800 or better. Purdue has already topped that this year by losing on the road at Maryland 50-7. Purdue allows 5.9 yards per carry on the season to teams averaging 4.4, and they will get a heavy dose of the Nebraska running attack, one they employ 47 times per contest on average. That will make it hard to get a backdoor cover as Nebraska may continue to score on the ground all game. Lay the points on Nebraska.
