The Buckeyes, of course, suffered their first loss of the season two weeks ago at Purdue, though the 49-20 final count belies what was for the most part a much closer game. They're unbeaten coming off a bye week under Urban Meyer's direction and will try to continue that trend today.
Husker coach Scott Frost said this week that he'd never been to Ohio Stadium before. Last time NU was here, a 62-3 shellacking unfolded.
A couple of pregame notes:
* From the travel roster: There was some thought NU might bring sophomore linebacker Breon Dixon, who has yet to appear in a game this season, now that the Huskers are in their final four games.
