Nebraska falls out of bowl projections in latest USA TODAY Sports list

USA TODAY Sports made a major change in its latest bowl game projections . After spending the entire season projected for a postseason game, Nebraska’s now off the list. The Huskers dropped their last four games and now stand at 5-4. With only three games left, Nebraska’s chances of becoming bowl-eligible for the third straight year are slipping. This all comes after the Huskers started the year with much confidence and were minutes away from taking down Indiana. But Nebraska’s most recent couple of losses were more significant. Since the bye week, the Huskers have only mustered 20 total points across two games. This led to the firing of offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen. Now Nebraska enters the final quarter of the regular season, which includes battles with two top 25 teams. Even with Ohio State in a slump right now, the Huskers face an uphill battle to reach six wins. Nebraska still has a chance to secure bowl eligibility this week. The Huskers travel to 2-7 Rutgers this Saturday for a chance to snap their four-game skid. Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. CT on the Big Ten Network.
