Nebraska scored just 38 points twice in the 2009 season, but both of those efforts came at home against members of the Sun Belt Conference. While the Huskers aren’t known for offensive production, that should improve this season with an experienced group. The defense should still be dominant, especially against Western Kentucky. We like the Huskers to cover and hit the under on Saturday night.
