Minnesota Vs. Nebraska 2025 - Chair Week - Media Predictions

[IceBoxGopher]

First predictions are out for Friday's game.

Pick Dawgz is picking Nebraska to pull off a hard fought win
I’ll stay with Nebraska, but this should be a pretty interesting game regardless. The Cornhuskers had some trouble putting Maryland away last weekend, but everything worked out in a very important road victory. The three interceptions and 3-of-7 result on third downs certainly didn’t help the offense, but they ended up tallying 453 total yards, 7.7 yards per play and 23 first downs.

The defense gave up 7-of-15 on third downs to Maryland, however the Terrapins’ eight penalties certainly helped the cause overall. It was a nice victory to keep a nice season going, but Nebraska has given up 27 or more points in three straight games now. As for Minnesota, their defense came up pretty big against Purdue with four takeaways and 6-of-16 allowed on third downs... Should be a good game.

Sporting News has Nebraska winning, 24-16
The Huskers have a plus-six turnover margin, which had been a problem in the past. Look for Dylan Raiola to break the Huskers' five-game losing streak to the Gophers. Nebraska wins and covers the spread.

Odd Shark forecasts a 35-30 Nebraska victory
Nebraska will win, Minnesota will cover, and the total will go over.

Pro Football Network is siding with Nebraska, 35-23

Generally, when your offense averages 7.7 yards per carry, you win. Gophs got to bring that average down.
