Nebraska hasn't looked good this season, but they shouldn't be three point home dogs to Purdue. Even with the early struggles, my model makes the Huskers -2.5 home favorites over this Purdue team. Take the free points.

If QB David Blough can build on what he did last week against Boston College, then all will be good for the Boilermakers. They were finally able to finish a game as opposed to letting it slip away. You have to figure that Nebraska will get it right at some point this season. What's been discouraging to see is how inept the Huskers have looked offensively, especially in the passing game. This was supposed to be the side of the ball where new head coach Scott Frost was going to have the biggest impact. Needless to say that defensively, especially against the run, they haven't been that good either. I don't like the matchup here for the Huskers.
