OVER/UNDER:
UNDER 50 -110

UNIT: 1.0

ANALYSIS:

The Dylan Raiola era begins at Nebraska as the highly touted freshman won the starting QB job. I'm sure there will be growing pains. The Huskers were an awful offensive team last year in averaging 18.0 PPG. Matt Rhule teams always play good defense, though, and that unit ranked eighth nationally in rushing defense, 11th in total defense and 13th in scoring defense in 2023. Nebraska held eight opponents to 14 or fewer points. Our models struggle to see UTEP topping 17 points, so are the Huskers scoring 34? "Not so fast", as Lee Corso would say. UTEP was one of the top defensive teams in C-USA in 2023 and brings back some key players led by pass rusher Maurice Westmoreland. Our models have this 28-13 hence creating value at Under 50.
