Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Maryland Terrapins Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 10/11/25

The Maryland Terrapins are one bad quarter away from a 5-0 start, back on home turf this weekend welcoming in a quality 4-1 Nebraska squad. This is an interesting matchup stylistically, as both teams lean on the passing game, while both defenses have been excellent shutting down big plays through the air. The Terrapins defense has been incredibly efficient, ranking top-7 in quality drive rate, points per quality drive and EPA/dropback. Furthermore, Maryland ranks 2nd in FBS in net points per drive defensively and has forced 10 turnovers in 5 games, tied for 14th most in the country.

Maryland freshman QB Malik Washington has put up solid numbers through his first 5 starts, though he faces an elite Nebraska secondary this time around. However, the primary area of weakness between the two squads’ underlying numbers shines in the Cornhuskers rushing defense, which ranks 105th in success rate and 81st in EPA/rush. With an elite pass defense, a passing game capable of making big plays downfield and home field advantage, I’ll take Maryland to cover as underdogs of 7-or-less at home for the second consecutive week.
