I’m getting the sense that Vegas has over corrected to account for that trend.... +8 feels like they want to ensure bets are placed on Nebraska early.
Agreed 100%.

My educated guess is that this MN-NU line ends up at about +3 or +4 the day of the game (barring any huge injuries for either team in fall camp). Maybe even +2. Minnesota doesn't really have a hype machine that builds up their Vegas lines. People will research the game and realize that MN lost a shit ton of production off their 2022 team.

That's the main reason that I like the +8...its very good value for a line I think will go down as low as +3. I'm not convinced that Nebraska will win the game I just think the +8 now is very good value. Only problem w betting it now is you could have a massive injury on either side that changes the scope of the game. You still gotta make it through 4 months.

I love the +8 and will take it when my guy posts it, but the thing that gives me pause on a neb ML is our ability to stop the run. BJ Fuck will commit to the run at all costs. They might be replacing starters on the OL but one thing BJ has excelled at is OL development.
