Nebraska football will face a challenge on Saturday afternoon.

As Nebraska football gets sent to take on Penn State,  it’s going to be an intriguing game for both programs. Both programs are looking for their first win, in a game that should be a close contest.

Nebraska has a bunch of playmakers, especially at the quarterback and running back position. Adrian Martinez will look to bounce back in this one. Although Penn State does not have a ton of weapons defensively, they still are a force to be reckoned with. On that note, Penn State has a ton of weapons offensively. Led by quarterback Sean Clifford, he has wide receiver Jahan Dotson. Dodson should be able to give Nebraska football fits, and somebody that they need to pay attention to.

One player that I would look out for for Nebraska is  Wan’Dalle Robinson. After a couple of games without much production, could this be the game he gets off his rough patch?

I talked with Evan Smith of Victory Bell Rings, and he gave me insight into what Penn State football team will look like on Saturday. In talking to him, it became clear that Nebraska and Penn State share many similarities in terms of play style. This could be beneficial to both teams, as they could get into a rhythm over the course of the game. This is a good opportunity for Nebraska football to be able to pick up a victory. Conversely, this could be a solid opportunity for Penn State. As Smith noted in his conversation with me, these two teams share several common factors

Without further ado, I give you his answers and what he thinks will unfold on Saturday afternoon. Whatever the case, it should be a good one.
