The Nebraska Cornhuskers are well out of reach for a spot in the College Football Playoff, so at this point, it all comes down to finishing the season as healthy as possible and seeing how good a bowl game this team can get.
Nebraska has already matched its win total from last season, so any more wins this season will prove the Cornhuskers took steps forward this year.
Nebraska's offense will be in the hands of quarterback TJ Lateef yet again as Raiola continues to heal from his leg injury suffered against USC. However, there is now the question of whether or not Raiola will stick around after this season or head into the transfer portal, especially after his brother Dayton Raiola just de-committed from Nebraska.
A trip to Happy Valley will hopefully end in a win for Nebraska over Penn State, but these Nittany Lions are starting to show some fight and should not be overlooked.

Weather in Happy Valley
Both teams will be playing in some cold on Saturday with only a high of 46 degrees and a low of 29 degrees, so fans had better bundle up. With kickoff not set till 7:00 p.m. EST, these teams will definitely feel the lower temperatures of that range.
Announcers for Nebraska vs. Penn State
Nebraska vs. Penn State is set to be on NBC with some great announcers. Noah Eagle will be on the play-by-play mic, while Todd Blackledge will be on color commentary, and Kathryn Tappen. Blackledge will be back in Happy Valley, and it should feel familiar being a Penn State quarterback himself, one who led the Nittany Lions to a National Championship.
