Maybe Vegas did not see the Huskers in Minneapolis last year, or the previous 6 weeks.
Most sites have it -4. It should move pretty quickly based on the early spread consensus.
Gophers have beaten Nebraska 3 times since they joined the B1G. Have the Gophers EVER been favored to beat the Huskers since they joined the league? Ever been favored to finish ahead of the Huskers in the B1G standings? I haven’t looked it up. Curious.
Local Vegas books currently -4All sites I checked are Nebraska -4.
BetOnline opened at -6 but is now -4.

It’s still Nebraska, at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln. They are getting better each week it seems, especially with Martinez.
The Gophers are playing with a true FR QB and all 3 of their B1G losses have been by at least two scores. They are gettting outscored in B1G play by an average of 40-19.
For Nebraska, 3 of their games have been coin flip games; Colorado (looks pretty damn solid), Troy and Northwestern. To use an old Vegas oddsmakers trick; flip those coin flip games the other way and predict the spread with those results. Would you be surprised if Nebraska was favored by a TD or more if both teams were 3-3?
We’lll find out a lot about Nebraska this weekend; if half the team hasn’t given up on Frost yet, this will be a really tough game.
Every week is different. Motivation from week to week can sway quite a bit. Nebraska will be at home and be extremely motivated. Minnesota just expended a lot of effort and motivation last week. I like Nebraska in this one. Maybe not -6 though.

A lot of people seem to point out Nebraska is getting better each week, ignoring that the Gophers are getting better each week.
Had the Gophers played against OSU like they did against Maryland, they would have lost by 60+
There's is a highly touted four star, ours is a walk on and it shows in their play.You list having a true freshman quarterback as a liability for us, then praise their true freshman quarterback.
Vegas must not know that ESPN, Sagarin and Connelly have the Gophers favored.
