COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Indiana enters unbeaten and has been dominant offensively, scoring 43.5 points per game with 463.8 total yards per game and a strong 7.3 yards per play. Nebraska is nearly as productive, averaging 42.5 points and 482.8 yards per game, with a slight edge in total yardage and a comparable rushing output. Defensively, Indiana has allowed only 9.8 points per game and 4.6 yards per play, while Nebraska has given up 12.0 points and 4.0 yards per play. That combination points to a high-level Big Ten game where both teams can move the ball, but Nebraska’s home setting and stronger defensive efficiency make the underdog appealing.
Indiana’s offense is good enough to win, but Nebraska’s home efficiency, strong defensive numbers, and solid ATS profile suggest the Huskers can keep this within the number. The most likely script is Indiana controlling stretches of the game while Nebraska answers enough to avoid separation, leading to a projected final of Indiana 31, Nebraska 27. That supports Nebraska Cornhuskers +7.5 as the best value position.
