Following a 63-3 win over Central Michigan, Michigan is hitting the road for a Big Ten Conference game against Nebraska. It will be the second time this season that the Wolverines hit the road — Michigan hopes it fares better than it did the first time. Two weeks ago, Michigan traveled to Norman and lost to Oklahoma in a primetime contest.
Entering Week 3, Michigan is sitting at 2-1, and despite Nebraska being undefeated, the Wolverines are a small favorite early on. According to DraftKings, Michigan is a 1.5-point favorite over the Cornhuskers.
The Wolverines are 6-4 all-time against Nebraska, but the Wolverines have had the upper hand in the series as of late. Michigan has won four in a row over the Cornhuskers, and the Wolverines crushed Nebraska in the last meeting. In 2023, Michigan traveled to Nebraska and walked away with a 45-7 win. In fact, the last three of four wins have been in blowout fashion. In 2022, the Wolverines won 34-3 in Ann Arbor. Then, back in 2018, once again in Ann Arbor, Michigan won 56-10. The game was much closer in 2021 when Michigan had to travel to Nebraska. The Wolverines won a close one 32-29.
Michigan hopes to keep the streak rolling when it plays the Huskers on Saturday. The game will kick at 3:30 p.m. ET and it will air on CBS…
