Nebraska vs South Dakota Prediction
Big number for a Nebraska Cornhuskers team that can be hit or miss offensively, but we just saw South Dakota lose outright to Southern Indiana. Nebraska’s defensive pressure should be the difference, and the Cornhuskers should be feeling good after upsetting Creighton. Possibly a letdown spot for the Huskers, but South Dakota isn’t scaring anybody this season. Give me Nebraska at home in a comfortable victory.
