    I don't get it. Huskers are the better team, the ranked team, much better record, won against Wisconsin at home earlier in the season, Badgers' QB situation is non-existent, etc.

    Why is Nebraska not at least -5 in this spot?

    you're overthinking it. average person doesn't know who Chris Borland or Paul Chryst is. UNL just scraped by Iowa in bad weather while Wisky just lost back to back OTs to OSU and PSU. they won by 3 head to head at home in September. -3 neutral site line now seems completely reasonable. plus minus-5 is a dead number that encourages no action. "minus-2.5? minus-3? shit, i better book now before it moves!"

      I agree it should be -5, but it's staying at -3, and the books are taking all the money that is being layed on Nebraska. Nebraska out gained the badgers last game but Martinez is a wild card and you never know what kind if game he will have. This Nebraska game should not be a big play in my mind cause Badgers could win this game or at least drag it to cover the spread. They surprised me by playing Ohio st so close.
      We will see what happens tonight

                I would stay away from this game...side and total. In my opinion, totally unpredictable.

                      Every bit the trap I thought it was, yet I bet it anyway.

                      Nebraska's getting curb-stomped.

                          Wow.

                          This might end up 70-10.

                                So when does Nebraska realize that they had a game today?

                                  Heart breaking. I had this on the last leg of a stupid fantasy parlay. $25/$6800. What an idiot to ride with Nebraska.

                                    What an ass whipping.
