Nebraska Cornhuskers 2025 Season Preview

The Nebraska Cornhuskers are entering the 2025 college football season with several changes and high hopes under the leadership of new head coach Matt Rhule. Entering his third season in Lincoln, Coach Rhule had a memorable season last year. Despite their historical prowess, the Huskers experienced one of the more bizarre downward trends in recent memory. However, Nebraska was able to rite the ship last year with their first bowl appearance since 2016, finishing 7-6 with a nice win over Boston College in the Pinstripe Bowl.

The Cornhuskers' offense, led by offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen, aims to build off that momentum with promising, young quarterback Dylan Raiola. The offensive scheme prioritizes spreading the field out and having the passing game as an extension of the run game with plenty of quick passes, where the wide receivers can use their speed and athleticism in space.

The Cornhuskers will lean heavily on running back Emmett Johnson as they lost the formerly high recruit Dante Dowdell (now at Kentucky) to the transfer portal. Three of the top four receivers from a year ago, Jahmal Banks, Isaiah Neyor, and Thomas Fidone, graduated. Look for Jacory Barney to assume the role as Nebraska's top pass catcher.

Nebraska's defense, under the coordination of John Butler, is known for its dynamic and flexible approach. Butler was on last year's staff as secondary coach, where Nebraska's defense was the strength of the team. The Cornhuskers will look to build on a unit that finished in the top 20 in overall defense and was one of the best units in terms of rushing defense. The Cornhuskers will have their work cut out for them after losing defensive lineman Ty Robinson to the draft.

The Huskers return all four of their secondary starters. The Cornhuskers have become a trendy pick of sorts, as they have one of the more favorable schedules in the Power 4. Nebraska avoids the likes of Ohio State and Oregon altogether, while drawing Michigan and USC at home. The toughest game on their schedule is a game at Happy Valley on November 22; however, the Cornhuskers do have a bye the week before.

The sportsbooks have Nebraska sitting at 9th to win the conference to start the season at +4000 consensus odds and have an over/under listed at 7.5 wins.

Nebraska Cornhuskers Point Spreads

With spread bets, underdog teams (plus odds) only have to lose by less than the spread to cover and win the bet. Favored teams (minus odds) have to win by more than the spread to pay off for their backers. Here’s an example:

  • Nebraska +12 (-110)
  • Iowa -12 (-110)

If the Cornhuskers lose, 26-20, they still cover the spread, since they lost by only six. Of course, winning the game outright as an underdog is always a cover as well. Iowa would need to win by 13 or more to cover, and if the winning margin was exactly 12, both teams would tie against the spread.

Nebraska Cornhuskers Over/Unders

Over/unders, also known as totals, are bets on how many points are scored in a game. Unsurprisingly, Nebraska's poor offense meant that the team did not hit the Over on many of their games.

Using the Iowa game as an example, let’s say sportsbooks set the total at 52. With the 26-20 final score, this is a win for under bets. If you bet on the over, you would need 53 or more points to be scored to win. Had the game finished at exactly 52, both the over and the under would “push,” which is a tie that sees the original bet returned.

Nebraska Cornhuskers Moneylines

Moneylines are another common college football bet. It works like a spread bet, but how much a team wins by doesn’t matter — the winner of the game is the winner of the moneyline bet.

Moneyline odds are a bit confusing, but it helps if you think of them in $100 increments. If Nebraska is a +360 underdog against Iowa, a win for Nebraska would pay $100 moneyline bettors $360. If the Cornhuskers were favored at -360 odds, that bettor would need to risk $360 to win $100.

Nebraska Cornhuskers Props

Proposition, or prop, bets are wagers on a player’s stat line at the end of the game, and they work like over/unders. There are props available for most skill position players.

Nebraska Cornhuskers Futures

The futures market is expecting the Cornhuskers to trend up in 2025, giving them longshot odds to win the Big Ten title, but having a lofty 7.5 win total. Futures are bets on the entire season, and they're priced like moneylines or over/unders, depending on the bet. Other Cornhuskers futures include over/under team wins, odds to win the national title and player awards markets.
