You also must understand that Nebraska is perennially overrated and Northwestern is perennially underrated, which makes this point spread larger than it should be. And Huskers' head Scott Frost has not made you money in this role with a 9-15 ATS record when laying points. Northwestern’s defense was uncharacteristically soft in the trenches, but head coach Pat Fitzgerald shored that up by adding three transfers upfront.

Christopherson: Whipple's sage camp advice critical component for ... (247Sports)

It's not as though Mark Whipple uttered a football thought in camp interviews that hasn't been expressed in some way before. Nor has that...

It's hard to put to words, but as this mystery 2022 season begins, Nebraska's recent past is not the past of Whipple and Mickey Joseph and Bryan Applewhite and Donovan Raiola. Or if you have a first quarter where the output is only a trickle? But Frost said some of the new blood has brought some added confidence perhaps. And while he did make the "business trip" point clear, you may have noticed the Huskers aren't just locked up in their rooms in Ireland, staring at the walls, uttering, "Gotta make a play, gotta make a play." Go back to near the end of camp in Lincoln for a prime example. Husker head coach Scott Frost acknowledged his team played uptight in Week Zero a year ago at Illinois, a game like this one against Northwestern where Nebraska was similarly favored but also carrying the load of a state's passion.

College football in Dublin - all you need to know (The Irish Times)

Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Northwestern Wildcats, Saturday August 27th, Aviva Stadium, kick-off 5.30 · What's going on? · Why are they here? · Is it a friendly? · Who ...

The Athletic ranks Nebraska as the 70th best college team ahead of the season, Northwestern coming in at 87. American stadiums tend to have behemoth car parks in their vicinity, making them the usual venue for the pre-game barbecues and beer drinking, but the Aviva Stadium has no comparable facility. Their fans are keen, to say the least, and will make up the bulk of the travelling support. Neither Nebraska or Northwestern would be seen as the strongest team in their own conference, that title belonging to Ohio State. Much has been made in the build-up to Saturday of their head coach’s Irish roots. Around16,000 American fans are expected to fly over for the game on Saturday at the Aviva Stadium, showing just how serious university-level sport is taken over there.

Dave Feit: Five Questions for Nebraska's 2022 Season (Sports Illustrated)

Wondering about the new pieces on defense, the offense in crunch time and more.

The schedule might be "easier"* but with a lot of unproven transfers, and an ongoing focus on avoiding critical mistakes, this is impossible to predict. I suspect that could happen with fans who got North Dakota and/or Georgia Southern tickets thrown in with the game(s) they actually want to attend. - Otherwise, in 2021, NU went 1-7 against the teams on their 2022 schedule. Most of these packages give fans the ability to pick one game a month - which conveniently meant selling either a North Dakota or Georgia State ticket with tickets to see Big Ten foes Wisconsin or Minnesota. The good news is the first three games (North Dakota, Georgia Southern and Oklahoma) are sold out. But if you need to go 75 yards in 49 seconds, you're not running fullback traps and options to the short side of the field. Since Lane McCallum kicked a 24-yard field goal to beat Northwestern in 2019, the Huskers are just 2-14 in one-score games. The talent and continuity of his assistants, along with Mike Dawson no longer having to split his time as the special teams coordinator, matters too. But I'm intrigued to see how Johnson is used in the new "wideback" role - a hybrid of running back and slot receiver. When they create a new position, it means they want to get you on the field. Among returning players, Johnson had the most rushing yards and second most receiving yards in 2021. The linebacker showed a nose for the ball and big play instincts.

Nebraska Football: What Player Are You Most Interested In ... (Corn Nation)

This is a very simple roundtable, specifically here to get us all ready for the football season! Only one question. What player are you most interested in ...

My other guy is one that I’ve loved to watch the past couple of years on special teams, Eteva Mauga-Clements. He flew under the radar last year and I don’t think that’s happening twice. A key factor why Nebraska only won three games was that Nebraska could not find a dependable running back and instead had to turn to Adrian Martinez to gain yards when the Huskers needed them most. Casey Thompson, while athletic enough to get a few yards running the ball, should be limited to under half of what Martinez was asked to do last season. I think his enthusiasm mixed with now having some experience will be a great combination and I can’t wait to see what he does. If he’s anything close to what we have heard about him, then the defense could take a huge jump.

Nebraska Football: Choose optimism before the Huskers' first game (Husker Corner)

There's a lot of nervousness when it comes to the Nebraska football season and its start against Northwestern but fans should choose optimism.

You made it through the offseason and as of right now, the good guys are undefeated until further notice. Momentum means everything in the college game and it’s important the Huskers create some early. I’m expecting the majority of the plays for the Nebraska football team to be through the air Saturday but who knows, maybe if we’re lucky Whipple will throw in a Fullback Dive. Maybe the confidence boost of being undefeated going into Norman would have been enough to pull off the first big win of the Frost era and start a long winning streak we haven’t seen in years. Lastly, on the offensive side of the ball, I think everyone wants to know how much the run game will be involved. Many go back to that first game and wonder what may have been different if the Cornhuskers could have started off 1-0.

Find college football odds, betting picks and predictions for Nebraska vs. Northwestern on Saturday, Aug. 27 in Dublin, Ireland.

Hampton had one of the highest ranks in the nation at forced incompletions, but his 4.3% explosive play rate shows a boom-or-bust mentality that Nebraska may choose to expose. Northwestern lost a key piece of the secondary in Joseph without replacement. The numbers fall off in dropbacks with a crowded pocket, but Nebraska returns 83% of offensive line snaps. Coordinator Erik Chinander’s aggressive 3-4 blitz scheme turned in a top-30 mark in coverage while posting one of the best numbers against the explosive run. The numbers for Northwestern spiraled further south as the 2021 season progressed. Whipple is an upgrade at offensive coordinator, specifically when drives extend past the 40-yard line. Quarterback Adrian Martinez had three rushing touchdowns by the end of the first quarter — a prelude to another four rushing scores posted throughout the remainder of the game. The Wildcats are looking for answers on defense, as leading tackler Chris Bergin graduated with his 141 tackles. The quarterback has no issues in arm strength, racking up twice as many big-time throws as turnover-worthy plays on passes over 20 yards. Northwestern enters Ireland with a mixed bag of experience from a TARP perspective. When no returning production was present, the 2019 and 2021 seasons both ended with a 3-9 record. Aviva Stadium will host its fourth college football game in the past decade, as Aviva’s perennial ryegrass has seen no shortage of explosive plays.
