Rutgers hosts the Nebraska Cornhuskers this Saturday at the RAC in an intriguing matchup. Last season, the Scarlet Knights lost all three meetings against them by an eye popping average of 25 points per game. This season, Nebraska started off Big Ten play with three straight wins over Indiana, Maryland, and Iowa. However, they’ve come back to earth some and have lost their last three games to Northwestern, Michigan, and Ohio State, all by single digits, including a 1 point heartbreaker to the Buckeyes last night.
While this will be a very challenging game, playing Nebraska at home is one of the best chances Rutgers will have to win in conference play this season.
