[Husker] Close game?

[Mike Jaixen]

Somewhat surprising to me as well. Originally I might have attributed it to the 
scores being a bit closer than they should have been the last two weeks...but 
Washington hasn't been terribly impressive either. (Losing to BYU and trailing 
Syracuse 10-0 before finally getting things straightend out.) Sagarin is 
especially unimpressed with Nebraska; that computer has the Huskers ranked in 
the 30's.

I wasn't thinking of this as a close game, even on the road, and was
very surprised to see the line at 3 points.  So, I looked at a couple
of the best computer ratings (Sagarin and Massey) and see that the
matchup might even be closer (although it should be said that at this
point in the season the computer ratings are based on little data and
are highly volitile).  So, I'm surprised that NU isn't a bigger favorite.
