A line over 7 feels like an NU lock to me.

Granted, I've overestimated our team most of the past few years, but with as oriented on basics and details as we are, there's no talent differential that explains us not keeping it within one score at minimum.

Anybody who is expecting us to win this year needs to have their head checked.

Year 2 though…

You think we 8 games this year

Maybe my O/U is 7.5 drinks per game.

We’ve suffered too long brother for boundless optimism.

Minnesota had the most experienced line in the country last year

this year they return one starter on the OL

I'm not a gambler but seems like the Huskers would be the take here. Minnesota loses so much from last season including coaches & coordinators. Fleck is a motivator but not sure how good of X's & O's coach he is. He's had some easy B1G schedules up until this season. Also I would think we would have a better chance of adding more higher transfer portal players between now and the game than Minnesota does. If we add some quality experienced O Line and/or D line that should affect the spread a bit. My only concern on offense is our O Line right now. On D I am mainly concerned about interior D line & Inside Linebackers

agree - at the very least it will take him as while to get the team to gel. Of course, we have to gel as well.

Minnesota will have a harder time prepping for the new Nebraska than vice versa .. That might be enough for NU to cover +8

Idk, I feel like we'll beat the goophers and that this is easy money

SKERS +8 ALL DAY BABY. ALL FUCKIN DAY.

For context I've taken the points for each opener last 2 years and I've been paid out big both times (thank you Bert and Fitz).

I'm not saying NU is going to be any great shakes this year, but I fuckin love getting +8 in a season and conference opener.

As someone who has won most of my gambling money fading Nebraska football (nearly exclusively bet money line), I’m getting the sense that Vegas has over corrected to account for that trend. Everyone knew Nebraska was going to lose the game and by the end of the year it was stupid to bet anything other than Nebraska. I don’t remember what the money line was against Cockeye but I know I didn’t lose much as it didn’t make sense to bet much. +8 feels like they want to ensure bets are placed on Nebraska early.
