nice work, hopefully that Husker drive running the option is part of the highlights

Ten years ago my dad, brother, a buddy and I went to Lincoln for this game, the first B1G game ever played in Nebraska.  @FearlessF was a great host, thank you friend!  

That 2011 game that I attended was Nebraska's only win in nine attempts against the Buckeyes.  IIRC, it was the largest comeback in Nebraska football history.  Series history:

  • The Buckeyes won two games in Columbus in the 1950's.  
  • The Cornhuskers won the first league game in 2011.  
  • The Buckeyes have won six straight since then.

Fearless ( and ELA)

This is a quick read which I think you’ll both enjoy. If nothing else this guy is a great writer and he writes an article once a week.

Most people forget what’s really going on here but not me. If we still had an upset thread this would easily be my pic this week.

Series History: Nebraska vs. Ohio State
Nebraska and Ohio State will meet for the sixth straight season on Saturday, and for the 10th time overall. Eight of those 10 meetings have occurred since Nebraska joined the Big Ten in 2011.

• Ohio State leads the all-time series, 8-1, including a 2-1 edge in Lincoln.

• Nebraska and Ohio State are in the final year of a six-year stretch of meeting every season as cross-division foes. The next meeting between the schools is currently scheduled for 2024 in Lincoln.

• The first meeting in Lincoln in 2011 was Nebraska's first-ever Big Ten home game on Oct. 8, 2011. That game featured the largest comeback in NU history, as the Huskers rallied from a 27-6 third-quarter deficit for a 34-27 victory.

• One of the teams has been ranked 14th or higher in each of the nine all-time matchups. Ohio State has been ranked in the top 10 in eight of the 10 all-time meetings, including this week's game.

• Before Nebraska joined the Big Ten, the only prior meetings between the schools occurred in 1955 and 1956 in Columbus.

The Matchup
Nebraska remains at home for a second straight week with the Huskers set to welcome sixth-ranked Ohio State to Memorial Stadium on Saturday. Game time between two of the most storied college football programs is set for 11 a.m. CT with television coverage provided by FOX, and the game can also be heard on the Huskers Radio Network.

Nebraska comes into the game with a 3-6 overall record and a 1-5 mark in Big Ten play. The Huskers are coming off a 28-23 home setback against Purdue on Saturday. Nebraska held a 17-14 advantage at halftime, but could not hold the lead, as the Boilermaker defense controlled the Husker offensive attack in the second half to key the victory. Nebraska will be looking to end a three-game losing streak against Ohio State, with the three setbacks coming by a total of 12 points.

Ohio State stands at 7-1 overall and 5-0 in Big Ten Conference play, following a 33-24 victory over No. 20 Penn State on Saturday night in Columbus. Ohio State is ranked No. 6 in this week's AP poll and stands at No. 5 in the USA Today Coaches Poll. The victory over Penn State was the sixth straight for the Buckeyes, with Ohio State winning those six contests by an average of 36.2 points. The Buckeyes will enter Lincoln as winners of 26 straight games against Big Ten Conference opponents.

Coach Ryan Day's team features the top-ranked scoring offense in the country at 47.3 points per game, while ranking second in total offense (548.1 ypg) and sixth in passing offense (346.3 ypg). Defensively, Ohio State ranks in the top 20 nationally in scoring defense (19.2 ppg) and rushing defense (106.9 ypg) and is in the top 10 in turnover margin (+1.0).

How do these 11AM kickoffs work in Lincoln?  I've only been to night games there previously.  Do they open up bars/restaurants in the morning, or is tailgating the only option?

some bars will be open at 9am

all will be open by 10am, which isn't much time

Tailgating is the better option

11am kicks are not good

Chase Contreraz will be the Huskers' starter at placekicker for a second consecutive week. "He did a great job of earning it last week," Frost said. "...He had a confident look in his eye, and that gives me confidence."

Frost announced that walk-on Nouredin Nouili has been placed on scholarship after starting the last four games at left guard, and the Huskers revealed on Twitter that safety Myles Farmer has earned a Blackshirt.

I'm planning to play golf
