Despite falling to Minnesota on Friday night, Nebraska football remains a one-score favorite when the Huskers return home on Saturday to face Northwestern.
The Huskers have played as favorites in the team's 3-0 start to 2025, but they will be underdogs Saturday when they host Michigan to open Big Ten Conference play.
Nebraska football remains a home betting favorite against Wisconsin in the early betting lines released Saturday night. The Huskers have been favored at home in all of their 2024 matchups at Memorial Stadium.
The Huskers will be playing as a betting favorite for the first time in nearly a month. Nebraska was the underdog in its prior two contests at Indiana and Ohio State.
After a disappointing showing in their last Big Ten road matchup at then-No. 16 Indiana, the Huskers opened as over three-score underdogs for their test Saturday at No. 4 Ohio State. It is the largest spread for or against Nebraska this season.
Nebraska football has been favored in all of its first six games of the season, but the Huskers projected as a road underdog by 4½ points for their Saturday matchup against No. 16 Indiana.
