3 reasons Michigan football will beat Nebraska as a road favorite

For the second time this season, Michigan football will go on the road for a national TV game against a team desperate for a big win.

Oklahoma needed to beat Michigan. Brent Venables needed it to avoid being on the hot seat. As happy as Nebraska fans are about Matt Rhule's 3-0 start, that tune would change quickly if the Wolverines beat the Huskers on Saturday.

Michigan is the favorite. The environment will be challenging. Nebraska is a good team, too. The Huskers aren't Oklahoma, though, especially on the defensive line.
