No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks post lines for many women's college games only on game day, and smaller-conference games often get none at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN's lines before each day's games and add the line as soon as there is one.

Not a promise: even a pick this strong still loses about 4 times in 100.

Advantages Why Nebraska can win

  1. Recent scoring margins: worth about 9.5 points to Nebraska in our ratings.
  2. Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Nebraska 37th (+15.7), San José State 349th (-24.8) of 364.
  3. Nebraska's offense (109.2 points per 100 possessions, 14th in Division I) meets a San José State defense that ranks 313th.
  4. Efficiency (points per 100 possessions): worth about 2.8 points to Nebraska in our ratings.
  5. Team matchup: where Nebraska can take advantage. Their ball pressure (72nd of 364) meets the San José State ball security (289th), so look for them to turn steals into easy points in transition. And their shooting efficiency (10th of 364) meets the San José State shooting defense (211th): a chance to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  6. Star matchup: Best player against best player, Britt Prince (Nebraska: 17.9 pts, 4.1 reb, 4.4 ast, Game Score 14.7) has the edge on Rylei Waugh (San José State: 9.9 pts, 5.2 reb, 2.6 ast, Game Score 6.3); at forward, Amiah Hargrove (Nebraska: 12.7 pts, 5.5 reb, 0.6 ast, Game Score 10.1) has the edge on Gabriela Pato (San José State: 4.3 pts, 3.3 reb, 0.3 ast, Game Score 4.0).
  7. Simulation: Nebraska win 4,795 of 5,000 simulated games.

Disadvantages Why Nebraska may not

  1. Weak spot: Nebraska rank 327th of 364 in shooting allowed (opponent eFG%) (49.7%).
  2. Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
  3. Who plays: women's college basketball has no league-wide injury report, so a late absence can arrive at tip-off.
  4. Young rosters: freshmen and transfers can change a team's level from one month to the next.
  5. Team matchup: San José State have no clear unit-against-unit edge, so their path runs through a hot shooting night or a cold one from the favorite.
  6. Star matchup: the key positions lean Nebraska on paper, but Rylei Waugh (9.9 pts, 5.2 reb, 2.6 ast, Game Score 6.3) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
  7. Upset odds: San José State win 205 of 5,000 simulations (4%). Even a pick this strong still loses about 4 times in 100.
