Since joining the Big Ten Nebraska has had a very interesting little pseudo-rivalry with Purdue. The two schools had only played once before 2013, with Purdue winning way back in 1958. Since then it has been 5-3 in Nebraska’s favor, but Purdue had a very narrow loss in 2017 and last year nearly made a miraculous comeback before losing by 10. Three of the last four games have been close in the final quarter and Purdue’s win in Lincoln in 2018 was one of the better road wins of the last 15 years (not that there are many to choose from).
