UM @ NU Prediction Thread

[rmndcat]

After a competitive loss against Nebraska, NU's bowl hopes are growing dim. Maryland, however, could clinch eligibility with a win in Evanston on Saturday. NU is improved over last season and has a competent defense. The offense has its moments, but is often ineffective. Maryland lost to Illinois last week and so is not invulnerable.

Turtles 35.
Mildcats 12

We don't cover and four trips to red zone yield 4 FGs

 

[jensberg]

Won't be a blowout but I'm guessing we will lose 28 to 14

Merry Land isn't going to put up more points on us than PSU or healthy Riley Leonard's Duke.

That tough new NU D will only give up 7 TDs but allow no FGs…or punts. Cats will muster a couple of long FGs - finally a kicker we can trust.

 

[phatcat]

We lose but cover. Defense is legit. Most of MDs puffed up stats were against weaklings

 

[NUCat320]

17-3 Cats.
Braun’s D shines and Jake’s O does juuuustenough.

31-17 Maryland but the game isn’t even that close as we tack on a TD in garbage time.

Maryland has a very athletic offense. Those types of teams always give us fits. Maryland will score at least 4 touchdowns.

Perhaps, but all they've beaten are sad sack teams

I don’t know about *you*, but I pick NU to win 17-3 every week.

We do have plays to get our slowest RB to the second level but not for our other RBs. 🤣

Then by all means.... carry on!

That's because he knocks past the first level guys whilst the faster guys dance around or run sideways
