yea. obviously spreads change. but the smart money got 5 points. i could see it going all the way down to a pick'em game.I think you mean "opened" as a 5 point favorite. Currently at 4...
minnesota is actually decent though. even if we have improved, there's nothing to suggest we're going to win by 6 points. i feel like it should be a pick'em game at best.Why this spread?
Because Vegas, unlike some of the supposed Nebraska “fans” in other threads, have seen what most of the sane, rational fan base has witnessed—that there has been progress made, that the team is getting better, and they’re getting close to turning the corner.
And lest anyone forget...Vegas is in the business of making money. They have zero f***s to give about the feelings of Nebraska fans. They’re using their own eyeballs and making a judgement call.

I love it when people say Vegas doesn't know. Cracks me up.I know a lot of dorks like to think Vegas doesn't know...but they are pretty solide...the Husker line last week closed at -3.5.
