Opposition Research: North Dakota Fighting Hawks

Get to know the North Dakota Fighting Hawks before kickoff on Saturday!

On Saturday afternoon at 2:30 pm CT, the Nebraska Cornhuskers will play their home opener for the 2022 season. They will welcome FCS opponent North Dakota to Lincoln for a non-conference showdown. Nebraska will be coming off a 31-28 loss against the Northwestern Wildcats last week in Dublin, Ireland, while North Dakota will be kicking off their first game of the season.

Saturday will be the 14th time that Nebraska has played an FCS team. The Huskers are 13-0 in the previous FCS meetings. They last played a non-FBS squad last season, which was a 52-7 victory over Fordham.

Memorial Stadium will be the home venue for the Huskers during the 2022 season. The stadium, which currently has a capacity of 85,458, opened in 1923 and has been the home of the Cornhuskers since that date.

But enough about Nebraska. Now is the time to look at the Fighting Hawks and learn what’s in store for Scott Frost’s team on Saturday afternoon.
