Rutgers Still Perfect (For Now)
The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are 4-0 heading into Week 6 of the college football season. They got a win at home over the Washington Huskies last week in their first game of conference play this year. To get another win here against Nebraska, the Rutgers offense might need to do more than it has been doing lately. Rutgers has averaged just 23.5 points per game over its last two games, which was fine against a school like Washington, but might not be sufficient against a team with a better passing attack in this Rutgers vs Nebraska game.
Nebraska Playing For Second Straight Win
Nebraska lost for the first time in the 2024 season two weeks ago against the Illinois Fighting Illini. They responded nicely to that loss, though, beating Purdue by double-digits on the road last week to improve to 4-1 on the season. This week, Nebraska is back and home and will look to win their second straight game. For that to happen, stopping the run will be of the utmost importance for the Cornhuskers. Kyle Monangai has been excellent on the ground for Rutgers this season and it will be up to the Cornhuskers to find a way to prevent him from being too big a factor in the outcome of this matchup.
Rutgers vs Nebraska Best Bet
Going into Rutgers vs Nebraska on Saturday, it is hard to see anyone but Nebraska coming away with a win. Look for the Cornhuskers to win and cover the spread, as Rutgers should be exposed in their first major road test of their season in the Big Ten. As long as Dylan Raiola manages to avoid the major mistakes that he made against Illinois, we expect Nebraska to cover the number on Saturday in Lincoln.
