The only Sagarin stats in my post were (and refer only to team ratings)...
Sagarin (in his most accurate ranking system, not the one used by the 
BCS) has Nebraska at #10 (87.26) and Missouri at #5 (90.04), making the 
game (@NE) a toss-up.  If margin-of-victory is ignored (as in Sagarin's 
BCS version), Missouri is favored by 4.

The other stats were from the NCAA.  Redzone simply looks at scoring 
once a team is inside the 20 yard line.

Go Big Red!
