Nebraska Football Tickets

Two more Nebraska games to be on national TV

If you have Nebraska football tickets to games with Minnesota and Iowa, you can now make your travel plans thanks to the announcement of game times for both games.
The University of Nebraska announced earlier this week that the Huskers' Oct. 22 game at Minnesota will be an afternoon game, with a 2:30 p.m. kickoff that will be seen on ABC.
The Huskers' regular-season home finale against new cross-river rival Iowa has also got a TV date. The Nov. 25 matchup between the Huskers and Hawkeyes will start at 11 a.m. and be broadcast by ABC.
The Huskers already have three games slated for TV broadcasts this season. Their only non-conference road game at Wyoming on Sept. 24 will be seen on the Versus network at 6:30 p.m. Their Big Ten Conference opener at Wisconsin on Oct. 1 will start at 7 p.m. with broadcast on either ABC, ESPN or ESPN2, while the homecoming game on Oct. 8 with Ohio State will be seen on one of those three networks at 7 p.m.
Whether they're on TV or not, you can get great Nebraska football tickets for all the Husker games, home and away, right now at Ticket Express -- where no Nebraska football game is ever sold out.

Big Ten meetings quieter this spring

The Big Ten Conference annual spring meeting was a lot more laid back this year than it was 12 months ago.
Of course, fans with Nebraska football tickets will remember that it was around this time that word was leaking out about Nebraska possibly bolting the Big 12 Conference for the Big Ten, a move that later became a reality as Nebraska left its traditional rivals from Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and Texas to make new rivalries with teams like Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota and Ohio State.
One of the big issues that was going to be discussed at the Big Ten meetings was the possibility of adding a ninth conference game to the football schedule.
If that became a reality, it could create some potential scheduling issues for teams like Nebraska that schedule non-conference games years in advance. While the change wouldn't take place until 2015, some schools may have already set their non-conference schedules and may have to juggle those games.
Looking at Nebraska's future schedule, the only year in the immediate future that has three non-conference games already scheduled is 2016, when the Huskers start with three home games against Fresno State, Tennessee and Wyoming. The 2015 schedule includes a road game at Miami (Fla.) and a home game with Southern Miss.
The Huskers have four non-conference games lined up on this year's schedule, staring with their Sept. 3 home opener against Tennessee-Chattanooga.

Huskers to be on TV at least four times this season

If you want to have your moment in the sun on national television, Nebraska football tickets will give you four good opportunities to get your mug on TV this coming football season.
The Huskers will be on TV at least four times this year, after the Big Ten Conference announced its list of nationally-televised games for the 2011 college football season earlier this week.
On Saturday, Oct. 1, the Huskers open up conference play on the road at Wisconsin, where they will make their first trip to Badgers country since 1974.
The following Saturday, Oct. 8, Nebraska hosts its first Big Ten football game in Memorial Stadium, and what better opponent to face than perennial powerhouse and defending conference co-champion Ohio State, which will make its first-ever appearance in Lincoln.
These two games are added to games that were already announced as TV games for the Huskers this season. They will play at Wyoming on Sept. 24 in a game that will be broadcast on the Versus network at 6:30 p.m., and their Thanksgiving weekend matchup with Iowa on Friday, Nov. 25 will also be broadcast, although a network and time have yet to be determined.
You can get great seats for these games, and other Nebraska football games, right now at Ticket Express -- where no Nebraska football game is ever sold out.
