    Like Nebraska here. Not a flashy team, but they usually play solid defense. A lot of people will be on Baylor after their performance this past weekend, but they are still a mediocre team.

    nebraska avgs 63.2ppg on road while giving up 70.2ppg. baylor at home avgs 75.3 at home while giving up 58.8ppg
    thats a 23.5 ppg diff so i think the spread is pretty generous

    good reasoning here.
    Im expecting a baylor win between 4-8 points so if I adjust to NEBRASKA +5.5 I can get +210, great value

    nebraskas overall average is 67.9 points per game and 58.4 against - baylor averages 72.2 points per game and 62.5 against...
    with that said, averages say game should be nebraska 65.5 to baylor 66-67 points

    I see a nail biter tonight

    very true,
    however nebraska has 9th best defense overall.
    can't overlook that,plus last time they played eachother nebraska beat baylor at home 66-62

    i think it will be close down to the last min and then baylor pulls away with foul shots
