No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks usually post college basketball lines the day before; a few small-conference games get one only on game day or not at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN and The Odds API several times a day and add the line as soon as there is one.

Advantages Why Nebraska can win
- Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Nebraska about 7.0 points stronger over recent games.
- Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Nebraska 16th (+16.1), Le Moyne 217th (-2.3) of 365.
- Home court: Nebraska play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
- Recent scoring margins: worth about 2.4 points to Nebraska in our ratings.
- Team matchup: where Nebraska can take advantage. Their ball pressure (54th of 365) meets the Le Moyne ball security (326th), so look for them to turn steals into easy points in transition.
- Star matchup: no key position clearly favors Nebraska. The closest: best player against best player, Pryce Sandfort (Nebraska: 18.1 pts, 4.9 reb, 2.0 ast, Game Score 14.4) is about even with Shilo Jackson (Le Moyne: 15.8 pts, 8.0 reb, 2.1 ast, Game Score 13.7).
- Simulation: Nebraska win 4,590 of 5,000 simulated games.
Disadvantages Why Nebraska may not
- Getting to the line (free throws per shot): Le Moyne 83rd (0.28), Nebraska 344th (0.20) of 365.
- Weak spot: Nebraska rank 344th of 365 in getting to the line (free throws per shot) (0.20).
- Weak spot: Nebraska rank 305th of 365 in offensive rebounding (share of misses) (26.7%).
- Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
- Team matchup: a strength Nebraska may not get to use. Their shooting efficiency (28th of 365) meets the Le Moyne shooting defense (75th), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
- Star matchup: the key positions lean Nebraska on paper, but Shilo Jackson (15.8 pts, 8.0 reb, 2.1 ast, Game Score 13.7) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
- Upset odds: Le Moyne win 410 of 5,000 simulations (8%). A 92% pick still loses about 1 time in 10.
