Nebraska is winding down a fourth straight losing season, but at least it has a chance to remain undefeated all-time against Rutgers.
The Cornhuskers (2-5) are 4-0 in the series heading into Friday afternoon's Big Ten game against the host Scarlet Knights (3-5) in Piscataway, N.J.
While both teams have struggled to consistently win in 2020, the pressure is on Nebraska coach Scott Frost with his 11-20 record in three seasons at the helm of his alma mater.
His Cornhuskers look to rebound from a 24-17 loss to a short-handed Minnesota squad last Saturday, their third loss by eight or fewer points this season.
