Against the Odds: Nebraska Omaha

Related Topics: Nebraska, Omaha, Nebraska, Top Gun

“I feel the need....the need for speed!” There are a lot of lines from Top Gun to describe the Nebraska Omaha Mavericks (get it? Mavericks...Top Gun...speed...I’ll see myself out), but this one stands out more than most. That’s because the fast-paced offense of Omaha hits for 83.1 points per game. Vegas doesn’t seem to care though, as they have marked Pitt at a 14 point favorite tonight, at The Pete.

The Mavericks come into the evening at 7-5 and have beaten Iowa, so they do have experience taking down a power five team. The game will tip at 7PM and Pitt will try and climb to 10-2 on the season.
