The Nebraska Cornhuskers will look to remain atop the standings in the Big Ten West when they welcome the struggling Purdue Boilermakers to Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

While the OVER is a solid 7-4 in Nebraska's last 11, their game against Rutgers was just the third during that span in which they have allowed 24 or more points.
