Matchup: #6 Nebraska Cornhuskers @ Kansas State Wildcats
Date: Thursday, October 7th, 7:45 ET
Location: Bill Snyder Family Stadium, Manhattan, KS
Game Line: Nebraska -11.5
Over/Under 51

The 4-0 Nebraska Cornhuskers will put their #6 ranking on the line Thursday night when they travel to Manhattan to take on the 4-0 Kansas State Wildcats. After the disastrous years of Bill Callahan, order has been restored to Lincoln under HC Bo Pelini. Pelini’s defense was quite possibly the best in the nation last year and has looked very good so far in 2010. The Black Shirts defense has allowed just under 13 PPG after the Cornhuskers’ first four games, including completely shutting down top quarterback prospect Jake Locker two games ago. Locker completed just 20% of his passes for 71 yards and threw two interceptions in Nebraska’s 56-21 rout of the Huskies. The Cornhuskers have been pretty impressive on the offensive side of the ball as well under dual-threat freshman QB Taylor Martinez. Although Martinez struggled in the Cornhuskers’ 17-3 win against South Dakota St, his versatility gives the Cornhuskers’ offense something that was lacking last year. Kansas State has gone relatively unnoticed during their undefeated start to the season. Venerable HC Bill Snyder has shown he still has what it takes to coach and has the Wildcats poised to make their first bowl appearance since 2006. They are led on offense by sensational RB Daniel Thomas, who already has carried the ball for 628 yards and six touchdowns in 2010. Two weeks ago however, Thomas was kept in check by a UCF defense, being held to just 76 yards on 22 carries. If Kansas State hopes to knock off the Cornhuskers, Thomas will have to have a big game against the stout Nebraska defense.
