#129 NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS @ #130 COLORADO BUFFALOS 2PM EST
PLAY ON #129 NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS -10.5 -110 FOR 5 UNITS
The Nebraska Cornhuskers don't get the defensive exposure that the Gators and Tide get, but point for point, they are right there with both of them. The Big-12 is a high octane offensive league, but the Huskers are allowing just 10ppg. They have held 6 opponents to under 10 points, and 7 to 10 or less, and 8 to 12 or less. The Colorado offense is running the ball at 2.6 yards a carry, they will go nowhere here. They are passing the ball at better than a yard per attempt worse than the defenses they have played. They will go nowhere, and defensively they are just about average, while the Nebraska offense is slightly above average. Defensively however the Cornhuskers are a monster, allowin team a yard and a half less than what they normally gain per play. I could see Nebraska covering this game by scoring 14 or more points, because Colorado will not score a TD in this one. I'll go with Nebraska in this one.
4 Unit Play. #123. Take Under 46.5 between Alabama vs. Auburn (Friday @ 2:30pm est). This is the Iron Bowl. These two teams hate each other. And, note that this is a nationally televised game, on Friday afternoon. This is one of the few games that will be highlighted to such a proportion on this Thanksgiving and why not? This is the game that Rivals.com calls the greatest college football rivalry ever. Auburn had won six seasons in a row prior to Alabama ending the streak last year and no doubt, Saban and company will have their gang ready to roll for this game. The Under has been played in the last three and 8 of 10 Iron Bowls. Alabama will dictate this game as they have played the Under the in their last five of six ballgames. Auburn comes off a tough loss to Georgia and has some time to think about this ballgame. I think Auburn will be prepared for Alabama offensively more or less and this will be a defensive battle on the national stage. Remember, Auburn vs. Kentucky totaled at 35 and Kentucky is a poor man's Alabama team in many ways. Again, the Under is 8-2 between these two teams the last ten times they have met.
