For the Nebraska team, they need a dose of self-belief as they look to breach past a Power 5 opponent for the first time. Huskers go into Sunday’s game with 2 victories and losses alike. Nebraska won their last game against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. Both sides, however, have certain problems to address.

With Nebraska hampered by their offenses, Injuries to running backs Gabe Ervin Jr. and Rahmir Johnson will leave plenty to ponder for their head-coach Matt Rhule. The side will miss these two seasoned campaigners dearly as Ervin leads the charts with 38 attempts and covering almost 200 yards. Anthony Grant will take the starters for Nebraska, with backing from Emmett Johnson and Kwinten Ives.

Michigan Wolverines might have to tread carefully going forward. Their two stars of the season have suffered injuries and status deemed as questionable. On the unbeaten side, there are certain players that are out of the season. Defensive tackle Mason Graham went down with a hand injury in Week 3 and would wait the rest of the season from the sidelines. Joining him would be QB Alex Orji, cornerback Ja’Den McBurrows and running back CJ Stokes. It’s a completely different side with the offenses hampered and the side now looking for replacements.

It’s a close rivalry whenever these two sides play against each other. Cornhuskers are surely the leaders with a lead of 26 points in the last two contests. That might get changed soon, with the form and belief Michigan has in the 2023 season.
