It’s been a LONG two weeks for these two.
Ohio State has had to kick back and groove on the 32-31 loss to Oregon, and now it has to get back up to speed with the date at Penn State up next. This still might be the best team in college football, but now it has to show it.
Indiana just scored against Nebraska again.
The Husker defense went bye-bye in a 56-7 loss in Bloomington, and it’s not like things are about to get easier in Columbus.
UCLA is up next with at USC, Wisconsin, and at Iowa to close. Nebraska will get that sixth win to go bowling, but it could use a confidence boost against a Buckeye team this good.

Why Nebraska Will Win
Nebraska has to bring the heat from the start.
The defense is good, but it needs to generate pressure and be disruptive for everything to work. Indiana was able to run at will, Illinois ran well, and Ohio State will likely be able to pound away, but the Huskers have to own third downs with the pass rush.
