Why Penn State Will Cover The Spread/Win

Penn State plays at a fast pace, which is why they are sixth in the Big Ten in scoring. Penn State needs to continue their fast pace if they want to win this game. Nebraska allows teams to play at a fast pace, so Penn State is in a good position to score some points. If the Nittany Lions can make their shots, they will be able to win this game on the road.

Penn State gets to the free throw line the fifth-most in the Big-10. Penn State needs to get Nebraska into foul trouble. If they can get some of Nebraska's better players in foul trouble, and out of the game, they will be able to win this game.

Why Nebraska Will Cover The Spread/Win

Nebraska is one of the best defenses in the Big Ten. They allow 70.8 points per game, but teams shoot just 40.2 percent off them this season. That number is good for third in the Big Ten. Nebraska is also very good when it comes to staying out of foul trouble. Teams take the second-fewest free throws against the Cornhuskers this season. Nebraska will win this game on the defensive end of the court.

Nebraska is the fourth-best team in the Big Ten in points per game. Penn State gives up the fourth-most points per game. Nebraska should be able to do some scoring in this game, especially because it is a home game. As long as Nebraska can put up some points, they will win this game.

Final Penn State-Nebraska Prediction & Pick

I do not think this game will be very close. Nebraska is the better team, and they are playing their best basketball in Lincoln. At home this season, Nebraska is 15-1. Their lone loss is to Creighton. With this being a home game for Nebraska, I like the Cornhuskers to win this game and cover the spread.
