UTEP vs Nebraska AI Prediction:
Free CFB Betting Insights for 8/31/24
Nebraska enters the 2024 season with renewed hopes under coach Matt Rhule, aiming to bounce back from a disappointing 5-7 record last year. The Huskers are expected to dominate the game with a strong ground attack led by running backs like Emmett Johnson and the dual-threat capability of quarterback Heinrich Haarberg. Nebraska’s defense, featuring key players like Isaac Gifford and Jimari Butler, is also poised to make a significant impact against UTEP’s struggling offense.
UTEP, under new head coach Scotty Walden, faces a tough challenge in Lincoln. Walden has brought in several key transfers from Austin Peay, including quarterback Cade McConnell and running back Jevon Jackson, to revitalize a Miners offense that averaged just 19.9 points per game last season. The defense will need to improve drastically, particularly against the run, to have any chance of keeping the game close against Nebraska’s potent offense.

Miners AI Preview
The UTEP Miners, coming off a 3-9 season, are looking to make a statement under new head coach Scotty Walden. The offense will depend on quarterback Cade McConnell and the fresh energy brought by transfers like Jevon Jackson and Trey Goodman. Defensively, UTEP must address weaknesses in their run defense and find ways to disrupt Nebraska’s offense to stay competitive. While UTEP is a significant underdog, they will aim to show growth and competitiveness against a strong Nebraska team.

Cornhuskers AI Preview
Nebraska aims to start the 2024 season strong and end its streak of missing bowl games for the past seven years. With a talented roster that includes new quarterback Heinrich Haarberg and a strong backfield, the Cornhuskers will focus on establishing their running game against a vulnerable UTEP defense. The team’s defense, which performed well last season, is expected to control the line of scrimmage and pressure UTEP’s offense. Nebraska’s fans are hopeful that this game will set the tone for a more successful season under Matt Rhule.
