So, who are the Nebraska Cornhuskers? Is this a team ready to turn the corner under Matt Rhule and become one of the teams in the Big Ten ready to compete? Or are they setting up Huskers fans for another season of fizzling out? This week's game could provide a lot of direction in that answer.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-1, 1-1 Big Ten) travel to College Park, Maryland, to take on the Maryland Terrapins (4-1, 1-1 Big Ten), who are a confident bunch looking to make a little noise and play spoiler to Nebraska.

Nebraska vs. Maryland prediction, pick:

If there is a year and schedule for Nebraska to get confident and win a lot of games, it's this year. They do not have a ranked opponent remaining on their schedule, and to be frank, it's the Cornhuskers to lose. It is a bit of a putrid schedule, but by no fault of their own.

Navigating Maryland is no given, though. This is the type of game that Nebraska has faltered in over the last decade when they have success out in front of them. I think this year, though, they manage to find a way not to fall over themselves.

It hasn't been against stellar competition, but Dylan Raiola is playing better football this year, throwing for 1,331 yards and 12 touchdowns, while completing 74.2% of his passes. The biggest improvement is the interceptions being down, as he has thrown just two on the year.

The curious matchup in this game is how the Cornhuskers handle Malik Washington, the Maryland quarterback. They dominated Michigan State QB Aidan Chiles last week to the tune of 9-23, 85 yards, and two picks. Malik Washington is playing a bit better, but if they can slow him down, it's their game to lose.
