NCAA Football Betting – Nebraska (4-5) at Kansas (8-0)
By Eric Williams
The Nebraska Cornhuskers, (4-5 SU, 2-7 ATS, 3-6 O/U) are averaging 426.2 yards and 26.4 points per game on offense and allowing 467.0 yards and 31.4 points per game to their opponents.
The Kansas Jayhawks, (8-0 SU, 7-0 ATS, 3-4 O/U) are averaging 479.4 yards and 42.5 points per game on offense and allowing 130.0 yards and 6.6 points per game to their opponents.
What in the name of Tom Osborne is going on here? The Kansas Jayhawks, one of the nation’s elite “basketball: schools, is one of five remaining unbeaten teams in the nation in football, while the legendary Nebraska Cornhuskers, one of the country’s most successful and respected “football” has been floundering in mediocrity ever since current head coach Bill Callahan took over the program three seasons ago.
Here s a look at tonight’s Key Trends, followed by my Free NCAA Football Betting Football Picks:
Key Cornhuskers Trends
The Cornhuskers are 8-18-2 ATS in their last 28 games following a ATS win.
The Cornhuskers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a S.U. loss.
The Cornhuskers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games after allowing more than 450 total yards in their previous game.

The Jayhawks are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games on turf.
The Jayhawks are 6-0 ATS in their last six games following a S.U. win.
Key Totals Trends
The Under is 5-0 in Cornhuskers last five games as a road underdog.

The Over is 6-0 in Jayhawks last six games in November.

Key Head-to-Head Trends
There are no trends available.
Analysis: Kansas is 8-0 for just the fourth time in school history, and is looking to start 9-0 for the first time since its undefeated 1908 season. Not only are the Cornhuskers barely better than the nation’s top high school team at the moment, but they has also lost starting quarterback Sam Keller for the remainder of the season.
I’m thinking Kansas wins this homecoming matchup by at least three touchdowns, particularly after losing 39-32 in overtime last season.
