Nebraska projected to face ACC team in Pinstripe Bowl

Erick Smith of USA Today released his reshuffled college football playoff and bowl projections after week three of play. Though many teams have shifted in the projections, Nebraska has remained in the same spot since the preseason: a date with North Carolina State in the Pinstripe Bowl.

The Huskers stand at 3-0 following their non-conference slate, which included wins over Ohio, Bowling Green and North Dakota. In those three games, Nebraska's outscored its opponents 139-35. Now, the Huskers enter conference play, looking to earn their third straight bowl-game appearance.
