“First of all, I want to thank the seniors that played their last game at Memorial Stadium. This is a tough one. To be in control of a game like that. I have to do a better job of getting them to close people out. That’s what’s going to happen with maturity and doing a better job. Take a hat off to these kids. Just a good character group. A group that’s not going to quit. I told them today they’re a better football team than the day I met them in December. We’re going to continue to get better, day in and day out. We’re going to come back next week, and we’re going to play hard again and look for a different result. Just didn’t happen today. This one hurts.”

Game time announced for Nebraska’s rivalry game vs. Wisconsin

It’s looking like another early kickoff for the Cornhuskers!!

The Big Ten Conference has finally announced the game time for Nebraska’s rivalry game against Wisconsin. The Huskers will host the Badgers at Memorial Stadium for an 11:00 am kickoff on ESPN. Nebraska will enter the game with a record of 3-7 (2-5 Big Ten) and are currently on a four-game losing streak. The Wisconsin Badgers will enter Saturday with a mark of 5-5 (3-4). They’ll be coming off a 24-10 loss at Iowa last weekend.

Both schools are also being led by interim head coaches, with assistant head coach/wide receiver Mickey Joseph taking over Nebraska when Scott Frost was fired on September 11 after a 1-2 start. Defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard currently leads Wisconsin. He took over for Paul Chryst after his dismissal on October 2.
