Nebraska (-7.5) is the play. The Cornhuskers are 10-5 at home, where their defense tightens up—allowing just 67.5 PPG. Iowa struggles on the road (1-8), giving up 88.8 PPG in away games. Nebraska also holds opponents to 42.8% FG, while Iowa’s road defense is abysmal (55.1% allowed). Huskers are 22-5 ATS in Sunday games.
Brice Williams is on fire—coming off a program-record 43 points and leading the Big Ten in scoring (20.4 PPG). Iowa’s defense won’t contain him, allowing 48.1% FG overall. Nebraska also holds a rebounding edge at home (35.9 RPG vs. Iowa’s 26.1 RPG away). Huskers play better defense and should control tempo.
Recent trends favor Nebraska. Home teams in this series are 16-5 ATS in the last 21 matchups. Iowa is 1-8 ATS in their last 9 Sunday games and 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 overall. Nebraska is hungry after close losses and should dominate an Iowa team allowing 79.5 PPG.
