rationalfan Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I know the game is at home and Michigan is not playing that well, but I'm surprised Nebraska is favored. Quote Link to comment
The Red & White Knight Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 http://www.huskermax.com/games/2012/files/08michigan_nu_stats12.html Stat match up is pretty evenly matched. I overlook that NEB has the best rushing offense in the B1G, and 10th nationally. Those stats aren't too bad. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I actually agree that these teams are pretty even. i'm not going to be surprised at any outcome. Quote Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 If we force Denard to make some mistakes (which he's prone to do anyway), we win. Simple as that. They just scraped by their biggest rival (a bad, rather one dimensional Sparty) by 2 points on a last minute field goal. Obviously, Denard is better than Colter, but honestly if we employ a similar tactic to shut down Shoelace that we did Colter, we should win walking away. And THAT scares me. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I think some folks are expecting a low scoring game. Quote Link to comment

The Red & White Knight Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Michigan's punting must suck if we're doing better them over the course of a season. Just saying.... Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Wow, gotta say wow. Im surprised we're favored even if we are at home. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 http://www.huskermax...nu_stats12.html Stat match up is pretty evenly matched. I overlook that NEB has the best rushing offense in the B1G, and 10th nationally. Those stats aren't too bad. We were 5th in the nation before the NW game. that's because instead of rushing for close to 300, we only ran for 200+ yards, and threw for 350. Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm not kidding when I say I'm gonna put down a significant amount of money on Michigan to beat that spread. I honestly figured that Michigan would open up at least a 10 point favorite. Looks like the easiest money all season. Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Any time a line seems too good to be true it usually is, keep that in mind Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Any time a line seems too good to be true it usually is, keep that in mind Ohio State sure wasn't too good to be true, nor was a +6.5 Northwestern. Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Past ATS results are meaningless in predicting future outcomes. Trust me I tend to think that -3 is a bit high too but meh, I'm staying far away from this one. Quote Link to comment
FrankWheeler Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I think being 6th in rushing yards per game and 4th in yards per rush are more important stats than total rushing yards. Quote Link to comment
epocSoN Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm not a betting man but if I was I would bet the house on Michigan. Quote Link to comment
