The Maryland Terrapins are coming off a massive win over No. 3 Purdue in their last game, but they’re now on the road this Sunday once morest the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Nebraska struggled in the Big Ten, going 6-10, the third-worst finish in the conference. However, the Cornhuskers have played well at home (9-3) this season.
Maryland’s defense was very effective once morest Purdue, allowing only 54 points. The Terrapins have been very effective in this area throughout the season, ranking 22nd in opposition points per game and 35th in shots on goal percentage. KenPom ranks them 22nd in the nation in adjusted defensive effectiveness.
The Cornhuskers have lost 19 times to Maryland on the road this season, but the Terrapins are only 2-6 in real road games this season. Will it come back to them as away favorites on Sunday?
Maryland vs Nebraska: odds, difference and total
Maryland vs Nebraska – prediction and choice of players
Maryland hasn’t been great on the road this season, but the Terrapins have a massive advantage in this game defensively.
The Cornhuskers rank 303rd in the nation in points per game and 176th in field goal percentage. This will be a problem once morest the Terrapins’ elite defense, and the first encounter between these teams was wildly uneven.
After a huge victory over Purdue, the Terrapins have an opportunity to overcome their difficulties on the road. They’ve thrived as five-plus point favorites this season, going 7-3 ATS.
Nebraska, meanwhile, is just 4-10 ATS when considered such an underdog. I think Maryland is building on its win over Purdue last Sunday.
