Nebraska Football: Five things to watch vs Michigan Wolverines

After a rough start to the season and to the Scott Frost era, Nebraska football has a difficult road game this weekend. They’ll head to Ann Arbor for a date with the Michigan Wolverines.

Not many Nebraska football fans predicted an 0-2 start to the season, but that’s what Husker fans are looking at right now unfortunately. It’s not getting any easier this week, as Nebraska hits the road for the first time this season and will take on the 19th ranked Michigan Wolverines at 11 AM on Saturday.

I’m not going to sugarcoat this. Nebraska is probably going to get their butts whooped this weekend by one of the top 25 teams in the country.

At this point, just seeing the Cornhuskers compete and fight would be an accomplishment in my book. Sure, that might be “the millennial way”, but there’s a slim chance that Nebraska goes into Ann Arbor and leaves with a victory.

With that said, however, there’s a reason teams play the games and that’s because anything can happen. Let’s take a look at five things to keep an eye on in Nebraska’s third regular season game.
