Here’s how you can watch Saturday’s Oregon vs Nebraska live stream from Lincoln online.

For the first time in a few years, the Oregon Ducks don’t open the season as favorites to make a run at a national title, nor even a Pac-12 crown. Mark Helfrich’s team will have to fly under the radar this season if they’re going to contend for a playoff, and that might just be a blessing in disguise.

The Ducks are down Vernon Adams Jr. but have added Montana State-transfer Dakota Prukop who has been impressive through the first two weeks. He’s completing about 69 percent of his throws for 602 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions. Darren Carrington II and Devon Allen have been his favorite targets, combining for 15 receptions, 317 yards and two scores.

Royce Freeman is back for his junior year and better than ever. He’s a serious Heisman threat yet again, rushing for 294 yards and four touchdowns on 9.2 yards per touch.

Nebraska is eager to put a disappointing 2015 season behind it. Mike Riley is leading a team who lost six games by one score or less in his first year and a few plays going the right way could have been the difference between a six-win year and a 10-win season. Off to a 2-0 start, the Cornhuskers may have figured some things out this offseason.

Playing for fallen punter Sam Foltz, Nebraska players are hoping to make a run at the Big Ten title to honor a former teammate and good friend. Tommy Armstrong Jr. is off to a normal, inaccurate start, but he has passed for 485 yards and four touchdowns. He needs to improve on his accuracy moving forward.

Senior receiver Alonzo Moore leads the team with 201 yards and two touchdowns on just six catches, but is questionable for Saturday night’s game. Jordan Westerkamp will look to take over the No. 1 role in that case, something he is familiar with.

Devine Ozigbo has been solid in the run game, accounting for 147 yards and three touchdowns on 4.6 yards per carry and Terrell Newby is a quality backup.
