WHAT’S AT STAKE

Nebraska, coming off its Hail Mary victory over Northwestern, needs a win here to set up a showdown with Michigan State next week for a share of first place and the tie-breaker in the Big Ten Legends Division. The Wolverines’ hopes for winning the division took a major hit with last week’s loss to the Spartans, and now might be the time to start jockeying for bowl position.

KEY MATCHUP

Nebraska RB Ameer Abdullah vs. Michigan rush defense: The Big Ten’s leading rusher already is over 1,000 yards and has gone for 100 in all but one game. The Wolverines are 14th nationally against the run and didn’t allow a back to top 100 yards until last week, when Jeremy Langford went for 120.

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Nebraska: QB Tommy Armstrong has thrown six interceptions in his past two games and was replaced by Ron Kellogg III for the Huskers’ game-winning, Hail Mary drive against Northwestern. Let’s see how the redshirt freshman bounces back.

Michigan: TE Devin Funchess is a tough matchup for the Huskers. The 6-foot-4, 235-pound sophomore is averaging a team-high 19.2 yards on his 29 catches.
