Out of all the listed Predictions with actual scores the average rounds to the following:

Michigan 31
Nebraska 11

My personal gut feeling:

Michigan 34
Nebraska 17

Husker fans aren't really getting hyped up for this game and with good reason. The ultimate goal for this year is to still make it to a bowl game and the expectations are being managed to focus more on games whereas they have a better shot at winning. Overall I think being able to play Michigan competitively will more than satisfy an exhausted fan base who just want to see the team get better every week. Upsets happen every week in college football and who knows, if Michigan makes critical mistakes and Nebraska capitalizes an upset would be divine.

I think it will be lower scoring. Although Huskers haven't played anybody with a pulse yet they are #2 in the nation in rushing yds allowed. Throw in a 20 mph wind at gametime and it gets interesting. Field position and having the wind at your back critical.
Thinking 24-10.

Final Score

Michigan 45
Nebraska 7

Michigan plays at a whole different level and showed why they are more likely to be in contention for the playoffs. Nebraska started out flat just like they’ve in the past two games which is a problem. Was expecting Nebraska to bring a better fight but it just didn’t happen…at all.

Next up is at Illinois on Friday. Early line favors Illinois by 3.

Well, it wasn't lower scoring like I thought. Michigan came to town with a business like mentality and just imposed their will. Did expect more fight from the Huskers.
