The Matchup
The Nebraska Cornhuskers take to the road for the first time in the 2019 season, traveling to Boulder, Colo., to take on the Buffaloes on Saturday afternoon. Kickoff between the former conference rivals is set for 2:30 CT (1:30 MT) at CU's Folsom Field, with national television coverage provided by FOX and radio coverage available on the Husker Sports Network from Learfield-IMG.

Nebraska heads to Colorado after a 35-21 season-opening victory over South Alabama in Lincoln. The Huskers relied on an opportunistic defense and special teams in the win. Nebraska reached the end zone on an interception return, fumble return and punt return to overcome a sluggish offensive performance on opening day.

Colorado also comes into the game off a win, posting a 52-31 victory over Colorado State on Friday night in Denver. The Buffs' explosive offense showed great balance in the victory, rushing for 243 yards and adding 232 yards through the air. Colorado trailed 21-17 late in the second quarter against CSU, but outscored the Rams 35-10 from that point powered by four takeaways.

Nebraska and Colorado are meeting for the second consecutive season, as part of four games between 2018 and 2024. Colorado pulled off a fourth-quarter comeback to win in last year's meeting in Lincoln.

Overall, Nebraska holds a commanding 49-19-2 edge in the series. The two schools were in the same conference for more than 60 years in the Big Seven, Big Eight and Big 12, before moving to the Big Ten and Pac-12, respectively, in 2011.

Series History
Nebraska and Colorado are long-time foes with Saturday's meeting the 71st all-time between the schools. It is the second game in a home-and-home agreement that saw Colorado pull out a 33-28 victory in Lincoln last fall. That was the first meeting between the teams since both schools left the Big 12 Conference following the 2010 season.

• In last year's contest in Lincoln, Colorado jumped to a two-touchdown lead in the first quarter, before Nebraska rallied and eventually took an eight-point lead in the second half. However, the Buffs scored the game's final 13 points, including a touchdown with 1:06 remaining to escape Lincoln with a win.

• Nebraska and Colorado met each season from 1948 to 2010, as members of the Big Seven, Big Eight and Big 12 conferences.

• From 1996 to 2010, the Huskers and Buffs concluded the regular season against each other on Black Friday.

• Nebraska and Colorado combined to win the final eight Big Eight championships from 1988 to 1995.

• In addition to this Saturday's game, Nebraska and Colorado are scheduled for another home-and-home series in 2023 (Boulder) and 2024 (Lincoln).

Nebraska Has Long History vs. Pac-12
Nebraska's meeting with Colorado continues a tradition of marquee non-conference games against Pac-12 opponents. Since 1983, Nebraska has played 33 regular-season non-conference games against teams that were in the Pac-12 at the time.

• Nebraska is 23-10 against the Pac-12 in regular-season games in that span, including a 6-1 record against Arizona State and a 5-3 mark vs. UCLA. The record against the Pac-12 foes only includes last year's meeting with Colorado, not games against Colorado when the schools were conference rivals.

Before Montez and coach Mel Tucker addressed the media, CU athletic director Rick George declared Buffs-Huskers to be the “highest-revenue game that we’ve had in our history,” while also pleading for “civility” from CU fans toward the thousands of Nebraska faithful expected to be in and around Stadium Drive on Saturday. Buffs officials expect at least 6,000-8,000 to find their way inside Folsom, even though the Huskers ticket office was only given 3,000 tickets by its counterparts at CU.

“I want to make it very clear that we really want our fans and our community to be respectful of Nebraska and their fans. I think it’s important that we all remember this is just a football game,” George said. “Yes, it is Nebraska and we know that history and tradition, but I think it’s important that we have civility. There’s enough negative narrative out in our country. When Nebraska comes in, we ought to be respectful to their fans, like they are to our fans when we come in.”

Since 2015, Nebraska’s record is 24-27. During the same time frame, Colorado’s record is 25-27.

Advantage: Buffs
