Corn Flakes: Predictions Favor Wisconsin over Nebraska

Eric Francis

Steward Mandel, Bruce Feldman, Andy Staples, Paul Myerberg, Mark May, Matt Hayes, Pete Thamel, Pat Forde, Mitch Sherman, Dennis Dodd, Teddy Greenstein, Tom Dienhart, Brent Yarina....

I could go on, but you get the point. There aren't many people favoring Nebraska in this game. Can't say that I blame them. It's in Madison. Bo Pelini still has the "can't win a big game on the road" and "four losses a year" monkey on his back and there is only one way to get rid of it.

Nebraska has better overall talent than Wisconsin. They have more playmakers on offense. The defense is starting to become great. It's on the team and the coaches to put it all together while the nation... well, a lot of the nation... watches.
