For the second time this season, the Michigan football team will go on the road. The Wolverines lost against a ranked Oklahoma team earlier this season, but will get the chance to redeem themselves in the Big Ten opener against 3-0 Nebraska.
The Huskers are receiving votes in the Coaches Poll and the AP Poll. Dylan Raiola is second in the Big Ten in passing yards. He also has eight touchdown passes compared to zero interceptions.
Nebraska also has the No. 1 pass defense in college football through three games, allowing just 66 yards per game. It will be a test for freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood, as well as for the Michigan defense, which allowed over 400 yards of total offense against Oklahoma.
The Huskers have lost 25 games in a row against ranked teams dating back to 2016. They are looking to end that streak against Michigan. It's also the most important game of Matt Rhule's tenure. Michigan will have interim head coach Biff Poggi for the second week in a row.
Looking ahead to a massive game Saturday, here is all the key info you need.
