Texas vs Nebraska 2010 College Football Picks: The No. 5 ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers, currently 5-0 overall and 1-0 in BIG 12 Conference play, will host the Texas Longhorns (3-2, 1-1) in a battle of BIG 12 North and South powers. Game time is set for 3:30 PM Eastern and will be televised on ABC.
Bodog.com oddsmakers list the Huskers as 10-chalk favorites versus Texas with a posted total of 46. Longhorns backers are getting +290 odds as the the underdog while Nebraska is giving -380. Texas has won SU its last five meetings with Nebraska and is 9-2 SU in its last 11 games on the road. Of course most of those wins were when the Longhorns were BCS contenders and this Texas team is not measuring up compared to the schools recent history.
The Longhorns well documented struggles began before they ever lost a game. Eyebrows were raised back in week-1 when they escaped their game at Rice with a 34-17 win. The 17 point victory was closer than it looked. The Horns sputtered to a 34-7 home win over woeful Wyoming before picking up their first conference win, 24-14 at Texas Tech. Then the college football world shook when the UCLA Bruins, marched into Texas Memorial Stadium and whipped the helpless looking Horns 34-12. Texas picked up another loss a week later, dropping 20-28 to Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry Game. If the Horns lose today, it will be their third straight.
The Huskers are 5-0 SU in their last five games and are 5-1 SU in their last six games at home. Nebraska bettors have fared well when playing Texas, cashing ATS in four of their last six games when playing Texas.
It appears the Huskers are trying to attach an exclamation point onto the 2010 season, their last in the BIG 12 Conference. Nebraska has won in impressive fashion while going 5-0 SU, and they seem to be getting better as their performance showed in a 48-13 beat down of a good Kansas State teams on the road Oct 7.
College Football Picks: The Longhorns have had an extra week to spend on re-grouping after two consecutive losses. For today's game lets make it three consecutive losses. I like Nebraska to win by 10 or more.
