Weather

For a November game in Lincoln, it’s going to be a great day for football. It’ll be in the low 50s around kickoff and work its way up to a high of 55 degrees during the game.

There’s no rain in the forecast, according to AccuWeather. Expect 60% humidity and a dew point of 37 degrees.

Last Meeting

These two teams last met in 2017 and Penn State held the advantage throughout, defeating the Cornhuskers 56-44. Saquon Barkley had a career day, rushing for 158 yards and three touchdowns. Trace McSorley also threw for three scores and racked up 325 yards on the day.

Nebraska holds a slight 9-8 series lead over the Nittany Lions.

Injuries/Suspensions

Cam Sullivan-Brown has seen very limited playing time so far this season due to an unknown condition. Noah Cain will also miss the game after suffering a season-ending injury in Penn State’s season opener. The Nittany Lions will be without Journey Brown as well, who announced this week he’s medically retiring from football due to a heart condition.

Nebraska is expected to have all of its starters play Saturday.

We won’t know until kickoff if anyone has tested positive for the coronavirus. James Franklin said he has anxiety about gameday-morning tests potentially coming back as false positives and barring someone from playing. Against Indiana, an unknown player was ineligible for that very reason.

Betting Lines

Penn State heads into this game as slight three-point favorites, according to OddsShark. The over-under is set for 56.5 points, eight points lower than Penn State’s previous game against Maryland. The under easily hit last week and both teams are yet to win against the spread.
