What channel is Nebraska vs. Rutgers on today? Time, TV guide to watch the week 6 game

Nebraska and Rutgers meet on Saturday as both Big Ten college football programs look to get off to some of their best starts in recent seasons.

The Scarlet Knights (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) hope to improve to 5-0 for the first time since 2006 when they face the Cornhuskers (4-1, 1-1), whose only loss came against No . 25 Illinois. It took Nebraska all of 2023 to win five games.

Both teams will be led by dynamic offensive players, as Rutgers running back Kyle Monangai will certainly be one of Nebraska’s key players to try and stop. Monangai has 97 carries for 589 yards with six touchdowns this season, an average of 6.1 yards per carry.

Meanwhile, Nebraska is led by former five-star recruit and true freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola, who completed 100 of 142 passes (70.4%) for 1,225 yards with nine touchdowns and two interceptions to start his career.

Nebraska vs. Rutgers Predictions, Tips, Odds

Chris Iseman, Asbury Park Press: Nebraska 21, Rutgers 17

Iseman writes: “I think this will be another tiring game with relatively few results. But I think home-field advantage will help Nebraska and Dylan Raiola will make a big play late to lead the Cornhuskers past Rutgers in a close game.”
