If there is a team to end the nightmares at Camp Randall & take control of the B1G West, this is the one.

Nebraska is largely unproven this season. Regardless of who they have played, they are a top-10 team with a 7-0 record.

However, this is the week Nebraska can prove themselves. Here is why Nebraska moves to 8-0 on the season with a win vs. the Wisconsin Badgers.

Nebraska’s Defensive Line:

The Nebraska defensive line is not getting a lot of publicity this season because of the secondary’s improvement. But it should be stated that the d-line has played extremely well after losing the amount of talent they did. They are getting big production from some surprising places. Many people said preseason (me included) that Ross Dzuris was not the answer at defensive end. Boy was I wrong. Dzuris leads the team in sacks with five and ranks second on the team in pressures on the quarterback among defensive lineman. Nebraska has picked up where it left off in the running game last season, ranking 27th in the country giving up just under 125 yards per game on the ground. If the Huskers want to win this game, they are going to need the defensive line to continue to play well. They have yet to play an offensive line like the Badgers this season, so this could be the most important matchup of the game.
