College Football kicks off with a Big Ten matchup. The Huskers opened at -9 and its now at -7. The offseason regimen for Nebraska has been concerns of violations for too much practice. Last year it was 41-23 Illini, where they were ahead 28-10 at half. This year the strength seems to be the defensive side of things, and fans thinking Black Shirt defense and shades of Tom Osborne for the future. In my opinion this will be a W for the Huskers, as far as that side play, a heavy part of the early bets on Illinois + is what caused the line to get to -7.
For the Illini they return the O-line and QB but are now under the leadership of Bret Bielema who is back to the Big Ten after a rough go in the SEC West, as it will be for anyone who tries to win at Arkansas.
