Three matchups to watch against Nebraska

After last season’s disappointing 56-7 loss to the Nebraska Cornhuskers, Fitz and co. look to Dublin, Ireland for a chance to redeem some of that which was lost last year. Both the ‘Cats and the Huskers played frustrating 3-9 seasons in 2021, and both programs are looking to fix that this year.

That 3-9 season for Nebraska was a bit of a college football anomaly. The Huskers put up substantial fights against every opponent they faced in 2021, where their most significant loss was a mere nine points to Ohio State. That’s pretty impressive if you ask me (unless you are Oregon or Michigan, of course).
